Orlando

city in and county seat of Orange County, Florida, United States

🇺🇸 United States · 28.5336, -81.3867

Orlando is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 5 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.

4 productions were filmed at 6 places inside Orlando rather than at Orlando itself — listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“Though set in Louisiana, filming for Passenger 57 took place in Wesley Snipes' hometown of Orlando, Florida, with Orlando-Sanford International Airport standing in for "Lake Lucille" airport.”

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Orlando as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Passenger 57 1992
Never Back Down 2008
“The films Miami Connection, Ernest Saves Christmas, Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector, Never Back Down, and The Florida Project take place in and were filmed entirely in Orlando.” Wikipedia

Movies filmed elsewhere in Orlando

4 productions shot at 6 places inside Orlando, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Orlando itself.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Universal Orlando Resort per Wikipedia 2016
The Final Destination Universal Studios Florida per Wikipedia 2009
Sydney White University of Central Florida per Wikipedia 2007
House on Haunted Hill Universal Orlando Resort per Wikipedia 1999

Named here by Orlando’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Orlando, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Geostorm 2017

“Geostorm has a scene where Orlando is destroyed by a lightning storm.” Wikipedia
Paper Towns 2015

“The novel Paper Towns takes place in the city, but the film adaptation was shot in North Carolina.” Wikipedia

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Orlando, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
