UPDATE MAY 5 (scene details added at bottom to a major spoiler) I ran in to Supergirl shooting scenes for episode 22 of this season, which is their finale. The episode is being directed by Jesse Warn. The cast & crew shot in 2 different locations at quite different parts of the downtown area. First was a spot they had used multiple times in the past, a park in Coal Harbour, which this time was changed to look like an area for a press conference. Now I fully admit, I do not watch the show, so my knowledge of why a character would be doing something is not there. But this scene had Graham Verchere as George Lockwood giving a press conference where he was telling a gathering of reporters that included Nicole Maines as Nia Nal, to call for "unity". After that scene wrapped, Graham shot a scene about 100 feet from there with a newer actor (did not even have an IMDB when I looked him up) Steel Bey who is playing the role of "Charlie". The pair stopped to look at their phones as a new alert comes in. After that scene, it was time for a trek all the way across the downtown core to the far edge of Gastown, start of the Downtown Eastside. The first scene over there was one in front of the "National City Transit Authority" where we find Andrea Brooks as Eve Teschmacher sitting on a bench when Patti Allan as "Old Lady" comes over and talks to her briefly before getting up & moving on. Again, not sure why, but Eve was hidden in a hoodie, and was sporting brunette hair (I'm not confused right? She is a blonde on the show. Right??). Near the end of this shoot, a little bonus surprise arrived. Katie McGrath, better known as Lena Luthor, arrived at the set. But not to work. She was walking her dog Oisin, she also was there to give crew and cast that she might not see for the rest of this season some gifts. She spent most of her time talking with Andrea, and a couple crew members, before moving on. After she was done interacting with the crew, the group of us there to watch called out to her as she was walking away, and she stopped at met with everyone there. Giving out photos with, autographs, and chatting with everyone. Interactions like this one with Katie is why she is firmly in my top 50 nicest celebs list, and when I do my next update, will surely move up a bit more A little later they moved about 1/2 block up the street to their final location of the night. The final shoot seemed to give the vibe of a double date night. Luckily some Supergirl fans at the set informed me that the two couples I saw are couples on the show, so I didnt have to speculate on this. Nicole Maines as Nia Nal, Jesse Rath as Querl Dox were together in 1 grouping, with Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers and Azie Tesfai as Kelly Olsen were together walking slightly in front of them. The focus of the scene seemed to be on Alex and Kelly, as they stop at one point to have a conversation. I cant say what all happens, because I only really photographed the rehearsal for it. The cast security, who I have interacted with many times over the years on various sets, asked quite nicely if I could just co-operate with him and not be where I was because the actors wanted "privacy" for the scene. So I agreed and went for what I thought would be a good hidden spot, but somehow, someone in the crew saw me there, and he had to come over and ask me if I could move from there too. Even though I didnt have to, I obliged, as the way he went about it was not the usual demanding, bullying way that many others on most sets would try to deal with it. Not to mention, I know if I want autographs from the cast, working with his requests from time to time will help with that, as it did on this night. So the actual filming of the scene, I dont really know many details. All I know is the short little amount of pics I got during the rehearsals. At the end of the evening, all of the cast members stopped and took photos and signed for the fans. For a show who has a cast member so anti-fan in its lead spot, it really is amazing how generous and friendly the rest of this cast is. Oh, 1 other thing I got to find out. LaMonica Garrett as The Monitor, as I reported earlier this week with the first shot of him on an Arrowverse set outside of the Elseworlds crossover, was on the Arrow set earlier this week. I can confirm he is going to be on Supergirl too..... and he is there looking at someones dead body (all shot in studio, so dont expect photos of it). Start your panic-meters now. Who will it be?? Why?? Is it Crisis On Infinite Earths related? Guess we will have to wait and see. UPDATE MAY 5, 2019, 11:15 AM - I can now confirm the body The Monitor is looking at belongs to...... LEX LUTHOR! The photo below shows the scene description of "Monitor approaches Lex's dead corpse", and the scene number is 71, which would put it QUITE LATE in the episode.... POSSIBLY even the final scene.

Early this month, I ran in to Supergirl shooting a scene for an episode (somewhere around episode 14 or 15). The scene seemed to be part of a protest march. While I definitely dont watch the show anymore, I am moderately aware that they have pushed very hard to make the show a direct knock off of real life politics. The scene they shot here seemed to be centred around the idea of aliens having equal rights to locals. The scene mostly was a group marching, with a group of guys wearing some jackets that had a large gold star on them. Sporadic chants could be heard from the scene telling people to leave, and they are unwelcomed there. They were apparantly outside a building for the "Department Of Alien Affairs". For much of the shoot, I was pretty much in the dark for what was going on because of the massive amount of background extras marching in the scene, and the plethora of placards they were carrying with various protest slogans on them. While I saw several cast on set, including newcomer Jonathan Bennett at one point. Only ones I actually "saw" filming were Nicole Maines as Nia Nal and Jesse Rath as Querl Dox for the most part. I KNOW they filmed a scene with Nia & Querl that also had Melissa Benoist as Supergirl and David Harewood as J'onn J'onzz in the scene, but for the most part, my view of them was obstructed. It was raining a lot, and between trying to find somewhere dry to photograph from, and all the equipment & protesters on the set, there was not a lot to actually see. I did earlier when I first got there saw ONE take of David & Jesse doing a scene where they walk along together..... but they never did that scene again while I was there. All in all, this was 1 of the more confusing sets I had been to, as there was long breaks between scenes, and the scene as I saw it, really didnt seem to line up right to me. All I can say of it is, it seems to consist of Jesse, Nicole, Melissa holding hands and walking along together while protesters stand behind them.

The cast & crew shot scenes for season 4 episode 1 today at a spot I have seen filming at before. They were using an apartment building that any Fringe fan would know from the episode where Walter ends up in a pocket universe. The day started with the crew & about 70 background people shooting scenes for a vigil. I posted a couple photos below of the poster the attendees were holding. Not sure who it is.... if you do, feel free to inform me. After that, they shot a scene with Melissa Benoist dressed up as Kara Danvers, shooting a scene with cast newcomer Nicole Maines as Nia Nal. As far as I know, this was the first public shoot for Nicole, who gained major attention when they landed the role, as Nicole is a transgender person playing a transgender role. The scene had the pair arriving together at the apartment for what felt like a party by how others were dressed going in there. Nia was carrying a camera with her. Is Nia also a reporter? After a few scenes of that, they moved fully into the courtyard tey were filming in, so I moved on as there was nothing to see anymore. More photos will come soon... but for now, here is your first look at Nicole Maines on set of Supergirl.

Earlier this month, the cast & crew shot scenes for season 4 episode 1 at the Vancouver Art Gallery (just across the street in fact from where they shot some of the season 3 finale). As I stated in my earlier blog post here, I had more photos and another video (along with the 3 posted HERE ) from a different scene shot on that day. This scene had Melissa Benoist dressed as her non Supergirl character Kara Danvers. She was joined by Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen. The pair were shooting a scene where they were at a press conference for ... someone? It is believed that it was supposed to be for President Olivia Marsdin (played by former Wonder Woman actress Lynda Carder), but all they had was a different woman dressed similar to her up on the stage all day. Perhaps they will shoot a different angle of it in studio when Lynda can be there? But it seemed off that Kara and other reporters were asking this random person questions while she stood at a POTUS stand. Kara comes running up from a news truck, hands James a bottle of vodka, and proceeds to ask questions to the person there. Not much else happened in the scene, there was no superhero moments. They eventually wrapped that scene, and had Melissa leave for a wardrobe change for the scene that was from that last blog post linked above. Enjoy the photos below, and the video below that.

Supergirl was shooting scenes for season 4 premiere in downtown Vancouver earlier this month. In the scenes below you see Melissa Benoist as Supergirl, this was her first public shoot as the Girl Of Steel since returning from Broadway. She was joined by Jesse Rath as Brainiac 5. As promised in this blog post ... here some video from this days shoot. Here is another video from the shoot with Supergirl & Brainiac 5, as he watches her fly off into the sky. Last but not least, 1 more take from the day. In this one, you see Melissa make a mistake, and break out laughing, but Jesse tries to work through it, and follows through completing the scene. I still have photos, and another video to post from this days shoot form an earlier scene where Melissa was dressed as Kara on set with Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen. I will try to get those up soon, as I will be leaving town for a couple weeks and by the time I return... it will almost be season premiere time.

Early today, the cast & crew shot scenes for season 4 episode 1 at the Vancouver Art Gallery (just across the street in fact from where they shot some of the season 3 finale). On set today was Melissa Benoist, Jesse Rath and Mehcad Brooks. This post is going to focus on the later scene with Melissa & Jesse. (the earlier scene photos will be added later). The scene featured here included Melissa Benoist dressed up as her lead character Supergirl. This was the first time for Melissa to be on set as the Woman Of Steel this season in public. After a lengthy Broadway run that saw her not return to the show till a few weeks into the shows filming schedule, she had some catching up to do. Today Supergirl was filming a scene with Jesse Rath as Brainiac 5 where she lands in a crater, before getting up, speaking to Brainy for a moment & then flying away again as Brainy & spectators look on There was another scene a bit later that saw Supergirl handing a balloon to a girl who had her balloon float away from her. They then went inside to shoot scenes inside the Vancouver Art Gallery. Also on set today, was David Harewood. But not to film as Martian Manhunter or J'onn J'onzz, but to shadow the director so he can get the hang of how to direct for an episode he'll direct later this season. When I have even MORE time, there will be a bit of video from todays shoot to add as well.
