Whether you’re a comedy nerd, a thrill seeker, a sports fanatic or a drama lover, you’ve probably noticed one recurring star that keeps popping up on Netflix: Los Angeles. Since 2018, more than 300 Netflix productions have filmed primarily in Los Angeles. In 2025 alone, over 45 productions rolled cameras across the greater Los Angeles area. Films like The Rip, Ben Affleck’s upcoming Animals and David Fincher’s latest capture Los Angeles’ texture and cinematic beauty, both past and present. While The Hawk tees off in Pensacola, Florida, the Will Ferrell comedy actually filmed primarily on location around Los Angeles over 67 days and hired over 320 local vendors.
