UPDATE: December 4, 2019 - Video added at the bottom of the two exterior Lena scenes, and the exterior Supergirl scenes.

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in downtown Vancouver yesterday at a place called Hornby Plaza for episode 513.... which just happens to also be the shows 100th episode. Frequent Supergirl director Jessie Warn is directing it.

For the first shoot of the morning, they did a walk & talk scene with Katie McGrath as Lena Luthor, along with a couple returning guest stars. First up was Sam Witwer as Ben Lockwood who calls out to Lena after she comes out of L-Corp with a security guard. Lena invites Ben to walk with her & they have a chat. They stop in front of a black panel van (because I guess they had to make things easy) where the talk continues. When Lena decides to leave, her bodyguard actually blocks her path for leaving, she then looks at Ben and he implies with body language for her to get into the van.  A bit after that another part of the scene was shot where Ben is still standing just behind her, but now another guest star Robert Baker as Otis Graves is now in front of her where the guard was. Otis covers Lenas head with a black bag, and they proceed to put Lena into the van.

After that scene wrapped, they moved into the middle of Hornby Plaza to shoot a scene with a pile of people holding signs outside of the courthouse. Along with them was Chad Lowe as Thomas Coville, and a woman playing a reporter. She asks Thomas why he thinks Lena did not give up Supergirls ID.

After that scene, it was the one that was big enough it even had the paps out for once. Melissa Benoist showed up to set to play Kara Danvers/Supergirl for a scene. This of course was her first public shoot since her 14 minute Instagram video the other day where she disclosed that she has been a victim of domestic violence in the past. She showed up to shoot her scene already in wardrobe. She was dressed as Kara in a dark floral printed shirt, with a beige jacket over it. The scene sees her make her way through a crowd up to a stage with a few microphones in front of it. She then talks for about 30 seconds or so, which at the end of it, she takes a huge sigh, proclaims she is Supergirl and rips open her shirt to reveal her Supergirl attire under neath. Of course, you can speculate on if this is real, or a dream. I would find it hard to believe she would do this in the real world.... but who really knows? Yet.

Later they moved the production over to the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre to do a couple scenes in there. I didnt stick around for those scenes as it was indoors, and, by that point I was very tired and very sore from being in the pouring rain all day. So I took a break. But I DO know the only two main cast on set for it were Melissa & Katie... and it was a courtroom scene.

After that scene, they moved back to the plaza for a night scene. The night scene had Katie as Lena again on set, this time with returning guest star Odette Annable as Samantha Arias. The scene had the pair walking along and talking. Eventually, they stop, talk some more, while the pair hold hands, then they share a hug at the end of the take.

A little while later the crew wrapped for the night, and the cast left, but not before stopping for the very damp fans that were still there.

There will also be some video added later on. Possibly today, but definitely this week. So check back for that. It will cover several scenes.

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in North Vancouver yesterday at a place called "The Shipyards" near Lonsdale Quay for episode 508, directed by Marcus Stokes.

In the morning they were shooting a scene at the "National City Tar Pit" with Julie Gonzalo as Andrea Rojas, Mitch Pileggi as Rama Kahn, and Rebecca Ferguson as Acrata (no speaking lines, just doing running scene for Julie so the camera can get the scene all in 1 shot).

The scene had a bunch of tourists at the Tar Pit looking around at the exhibit, and dinosaurs that were also there. Andrea and Rama walk along a walk way above the display, before descending down the stairs towards the main area. Once down on the floor, the pair have a talk where Rama seems to be talking to her at one point quite menacingly. He then does something with his stick, and Andrea reacts as if she just had been snapped out of a spell. A moment later, the tar pit starts bubbling, theres a distraction, and Andrea grabs the staff from Rama and takes off. A moment later, the Acrata stand in is up top, with the staff and takes off at a full sprint out of the area.

Later on, Julie & Rebecca left, and Melissa Benoist and David Harewood came in to do scenes with Mitch, and you can find my write up on those scenes HERE

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in North Vancouver yesterday at a place called "The Shipyards" near Lonsdale Quay for episode 508, directed by Marcus Stokes.

There was some scenes early in the day that I will do a separate blog on later on with Julie Gonzalo, Mitch Pileggi and an unknown woman. This post will focus on the scenes shot later in the morning & through the afternoon. Melissa Benoist as Supergirl was on set publicly in her costume for the first time since her recent wedding to former Supergirl actor Chris Wood. She seemed to be in all sorts of good moods through out the early part of the day. David Harewood as J'onn J'onzz and Mitch Pileggi as Rama Kahn joined Melissa on set for these scenes.

The scenes the trio shot were taking place in the "National City Tar Pits". The scene had the two heroes show up at one end of a dinosaur exhibit, Supergirl holding a gun from Luthor Corp. After arriving J'onn and Supergirl looked at each other a bit confused as if they werent sure what the problem was, then a couple moments later an earthquake happens, sending the non-aliens there to the ground. At the other end, Rama Kahn was standing there, seemingly waiting for the confrontation with the heroes. Supergirl yells out his name at him, and he replies to her with her name and references to an apparent prior interaction they had elsewhere. After the conversation between the two, the heroes decide to run at Rama (why cant they fly at him? Why are they running at regular human speed?).

A bit later, they did another scene with the trio. Rama now standing further back in the exhibit, J'onn on the outer edge of the exhibit, and Supergirl in the middle, still with her "sonic cannon" (what I heard it being called by a crew member) gun near a crater that was now on the ground. Rama "throws sand" at J'onn which irritates him enough that he leaves where he was standing and moves over to where Supergirl is. The two heroes then have a chat which ends with J'onn leaving, and Supergirl seemingly being left to take on the big bad by herself. She also did a scene where she seems to shoot the gun in the direction of Rama Kahn. Whether it had any impact is unknown.

At the beginning of her shooting day, Melissa showed up and surprised a group of school children that had stopped to watch the filming. She came over, high fiving them all, and even telling them a little bit of what she was going to do in the scene. A bit later, as any of you who follow her instagram already knew, Melissa decided to have some fun with some of the props on display. Melissa got up onto one of the dinos and had photos of her riding it like a bull, then went over and got a photo of her hugging a t-rex leg.

Eventually my camera ran out of battery, and I decided it was a good time to call it a day. This is the last episode before they start shooing the 5 part Arrowverse cross over Crisis On Infinite Earths, so it will be interesting to see if anything happening in these scenes are connected to the mega-event.

At the bottom of the page is video from the scenes.

I caught up with Supergirl shooting in a park earlier today for an episode. I can not be sure if it is episode 6, or 7.

The scene was shot in Emery Barnes Park in downtown Vancouver. On set was Julie Gonzalo as Andrea Rojas, Patti Allan, the Old Lady from the finale episode, and a new actor who I did not catch a name for. If anyone knows, please let me know, so I can credit him properly.

The scene they shot had Andrea & the guy walking together through the park on what seemed like a date. The pair held hands and shared a kiss, before the guy just wanders off. Next the old lady comes in, and talks to Andrea and hands her something that seemed to look like a business card almost. Perhaps we will finally find out what the old lady henchwoman for Leviathan is named. That was the whole scene.

After that scene wrapped, the trio moved on to a different location in an upscale restaurant/pub to film more scenes. Later in the night, a short scene was done with David Harewood as J'onn J'onzz out on the street, but I did not wait around for that scene.

I caught up with the cast and crew of Supergirl filming in a couple places a couple weeks ago on back to back days.

To start was some shooting in the downtown Eastside. They did scenes at two different spots there. First, in a firehall museum. I saw 2 cast and another person who I believe was in the scene go in & out of there, but dont know what the scene entailed. Melissa Benoist was dressed as Kara Danvers, Mehcad Brooks was dressed as James Olsen, and a 3rd person I saw go in & out who honestly, seemed to be barely clothed under a robe they had him wearing in & out of the museum.

After that scene wrapped, they moved across the street to a bench at the front of a building. There they did a night scene with newcomer Staz Nair as William Dey, who at the time I did not know anything about. He shot a scene with an older bald man. The older man crosses the street, sits down next to William, talks to him, before handing him something, then getting up and leaving, before William does the same a couple moments later.

The next day, I saw Staz again on set, with Melissa and Mehcad shooting a scene at a building in downtown Vancouver. Everyone seemed to be dressed the same as the day before, so I wonder if this was a continuation of any of those scenes, or set ups for them. This time however, the 3 of them were all in the scene together. It starts with William walking out of a building that they had Catco signs up around, before he is stopped by Kara. William then attempts to leave, when Kara invades his space and physically stops him from leaving. Eventually William does leave, just as James comes out and talks to Kara. Kara looks in the direction of where William was headed with an irked look on her face before James & Kara walk along in that same direction. What was the conversation about? Who knows. We will have to wait and see, but it was clear Kara was not impressed with any of it.

During one break, Farley was brought over to the set by the driver to hang out with Melissa. Melissa picked him up for a couple moments and was carrying him. 

One last thing, I had some random person message me privately asking if Staz character was wearing a wedding ring. Apparently this is a big issue...... so let me just state, you can clearly see in a couple of the photos he is in fact wearing one. So whatever reason this mattered, theres your answer. His character appears to be married.

You can find photos form a scene earlier on the 2nd day 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.

I caught up with the cast and crew of Supergirl filming down near the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre a few days ago. At this location, they had the walk thru courtyard between Hastings and Pender street set up with props for National City things.

The episode is being directed by veteran director Eric Dean Seaton. In this scene Melissa Benoist as Kara Danvers, Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers, Azie Tesfai as Kelly Olsen, and Mehcad Brooks, who recently announced he will be leaving this season, as James Olsen, were shooting a scene where they are out for a walk together.

Because of the tight space of this area, it was kind of tough to piece together everything that was going on in the scene, but it seemed that Kara & Alex were walking together, when they were joined by Kelly and James. The group then walked together for a bit while chatting before they stop,  then the Olsens go one way, while the Danvers go another. During the scene, at some point Kara has a some donuts as you can see from some of the photos. I remember one of the times when I was walking past the set, I noticed a stand selling things like donuts there, but never really paid it much attention at the time as I they had not filmed the part of the scene with the donuts yet. So I just thought it was another background prop.

Before this scene, they did a scene inside of the Mink Chocolate Cafe that seemed to only have Kara from the main cast in it. No clue what was in there as it was all indoors.

After this shoot, they moved down the street for another scene, which I will do another blog on this week with Melissa, Mehcad and newcomer to the show Staz Nair which includes a pretty interesting scene between the newcomer and Kara.

I caught up with the cast and crew of Supergirl filming down near the Vancouver Trade & Convention Centre today for a scene.

Today they had a scene with Melissa Benoist dressed in her newly revealed season 5 Supergirl outfit, with a new colour scheme, logo, and pants added.

Melissa showed up after the lunch break to shoot a scene where she stops a semi-truck from crashing into a car with a family in it. In earlier scenes with no main cast, they filmed a scene where the car had to swerve to avoid a woman walking & not looking where she was going.

Despite a couple aggressive PAs who seemed to be confused about how public property works, the crew were quite understanding of everyone standing around taking photos of the new suit.

So, here it, your first look at Supergirls new threads.
I will try to post a few more photos later, but I wanted to give you all something to look at.
