YOUTUBE BONUS- Because of how large this set is, I will increase the 10+ Minute video selection to 10 photos. THIS INCREASE IS NOT VALID ON OTHER PLATFORMS.... it is also only valid on this blog post, and is inclusive of BOTH sets of photos in here, not each set.

UPDATE - (at 11 AM Pacific Time, March 21, 2020) Video will be added at the bottom. It does include photos from this post after the video. So if you have already seen them here, feel free to skip them.

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in part of downtown Vancouver called Coal Harbour. On this day they were filming a few scenes for the season 5 finale. Unfortunately I did not get to the first couple, as this information snuck up on everyone and we didnt really find out about it till the early afternoon. By the time I got there, they were on the 2nd to last of several locations they were shooting in the area that day.

The first scene I came across had several cast in a scene. Melissa Benoist as Supergirl, David Harewood as Martian Manhunter, Nicole Maines as Dreamer, Jesse Rath as Brainiac 5 (looks a bit different than I recall), Sharon Leal as Miss Martian, and the stand in for Chyler Leigh was in the scene too in some type of black & blue hooded outfit (anyone seen her wearing that before?).

The scene had this group of heroes walking thru a mob on a plaza. They get to the front, and seem happy about something. People are seemingly cheering, but there also was at least a couple background who looked up were acting angry, including 1 walking away giving a thumbs down to whatever was going on. No other context of the scene really is known. That was it.

After that scene wrapped, they went on lunch & moved on to their next scene across the street..

The last location of the day was in a childrens park. This location saw several cast at it.
Melissa Benoist was on set as Kara Danvers, Katie McGrath as Lena Luthor, David Harewood as J'onn J'onzz, Jesse Rath as Querl Dox, Nicole Maines as Nia Nal, as well as returning guest star Sharon Leal as M'gann M'orzz. Also on set was Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor, but he was not shooting (at least while I was there) on camera. This usually means the actor is needed to simply speak a piece of dialogue needed in the scene.

From what I could see of the scene, it seemed the cast were hanging around this bench, seemingly having a good time, as there was a lot of laughing while the camera was rolling. Then suddenly something catches their attention, and they all look up a bit. I never heard any dialogue for the scene, but their fun loving nature from moments earlier seemed to change into a more serious look. I know the direction they looked is where Jon was standing off camera, so perhaps it was something to do with Lex? But I cant say. In some of the scenes you might see bubbles on screen, this is because they had a child playing with a bubble blower throughout the scene, while another was playing soccer with a "dad".

This was, from what anyone could recall, the first on location shoot Supergirl had done, and more notably Melissa, since her pregnancy announcement. The earlier filming had her in her Supergirl costume, but because of the sheer density of the crowd, theres no photos of her full frame to see if she is well in, or not. The evening shoot, she was bundled in a heavy jacket to hide any ideas on that.

After an hour or so of shooting that scene, the cast headed off. Katie and David stopped to meet fans. Earlier in the day Jesse came over to a fence that was splitting the sidewalk and the property they were on to come and say him. They all appeared to be in good spirits despite while they were working the news came out that Riverdale, which shares a studio with Supergirl was shutting down production early because of a possible COVID-19 issue. Katie even referenced she was hesitant to give a fan a hug as she was worried she could give them the disease. Whether that was a thought on her mind prior to the news, or not, I dont know. But she eventually did give the hugs after all.

From what it sounded like from the crew I chatted with, this is probably the last exterior shoot of the season. At this time, I believe there is no plans to shut down production for their show, despite sharing a studio with Riverdale. Filming for Supergirl season 5 is scheduled to wrap March 17. So they just have a few days to try and get through this.

I also have some video of the scene, but it wont be up for a little while, as I have a lot of other projects that I am working on. Perhaps by next week I will have it on Patreon, and by the end of the month on Youtube.

A reminder... DO NOT attempt to post the video to your own social media accounts or website.
If you want to show your followers the video, you can do so by linking to this blog posts directly, or posting the original youtube link.
Re-uploading it ANYWHERE and not simply linking to the original post will have it removed, and depending on the platform, could have your account suspended or terminated.

In July, I caught up with Supergirl a few times out and about filming.

Here are some videos from two different sets.

First, was Katie McGrath and Nicole Maines meeting fans at the set of episode 501 at the Orpheum Theatre. Apologies on the 1 Katie video, for whatever reason, my camera was unclear what to focus on throughout the entire clip. So it does get blurry at times. You probably recognize the videos from the day that Nicole Maines posted on her social media about going to Five Guys Burgers in full wardrobe.

At the end is some video of episode 503 being shot with Melissa Benoist as Kara Danvers, Staz Nair as William Dey, and Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen.

If you are watching & wondering whats wrong with the audio. DONT. Audio is removed to prevent any possible copyright issues on Youtube. On my site, it isnt a problem, but for YT, it can be an issue if some song is playing in the background as a vehicle goes by & suddenly some intern at a record company that thinks your stealing from the boss who doesnt pay them files a claim against you. Sooo, no audio for YT videos.

You can find photos from the scene in the video HERE, as well as earlier on that day scenes with Chyler Leigh, Azie Tesfai, along with Melissa and Mehcad HERE
When I have a few more minutes this weekend, there will also be video up of the Melissa, Mehcad and Staz scene, I will add the video in here when it is done.

UPDATE: August 2, 2019 - News of the mystery girl has been added.

I once in a while have the luxury of stepping outside of my place and find a film set right there. On this day, the crew and cast of Supergirl were working in the building that is across the street from my place.

All of the filming on the first day, and most of the 2nd day was inside the Orpheum Theatre. The only exterior was a walking scene with background actors at the end of the 2nd day of filming there. The building is well known in Vancouver, and has been used by most every show out there at some point.

Early on the 1st day I saw some of the stunts team standing around outside waiting to film. At different points there I saw the doubles for Melissa, Nicole, Chyler, Jesse and a new girl that I do not yet know (* August 2 - we now know that it is Jennifer Cheon Garcia as "Midnight") .

During the lull that came with the morning shooting, I went for a walk and found the circus for the set. There was A LOT of cast trailers there, and were prepped for work that day. As you can see from the photos below, I saw the trailers for several of the cast, but could not see them all because of the angles they were parked at. I found it a bit odd that Nia Nal has a tape marker on her trailer, but Kelly Olsen already has a full printed plate for her door.

Back at the set, I managed to run into David Harewood and Jesse Rath as they left for their lunch break in the early afternoon and got some autographs from them on something cool I am trying to work on.

Later in the afternoon, I saw Melissa Benoist going to set in her Supergirl wardrobe, but she was hiding it under some type of sweater or blanket.

In the evening, we saw Katie McGrath and Nicole Maines head out to go grab burgers at Five Guys still in full Lena Luthor and Dreamer wardrobe. Nicole posted on her instagram about the experience of doing it HERE.

Little was really known about what was going on inside the theatre. All anyone can really confirm is what cast were there. Besides the ones mentioned in this article, Chyler Leigh and Azie Tesfai were the only other cast known to be there that I did not get photos of, or interact with at some point.
