Why film anywhere else?
Hamilton is quickly becoming a beacon for the latest Hollywood and Canadian productions, attracting stars such as Academy Award winners Russell Crowe, Robin Williams, Geena Davis and Anjelica Huston and shining stars like Edward Norton and Samuel L. Jackson. Only 45 minutes away from Canada's film capital, Toronto, Ontario, Hamilton has the variety of locations, access to film expertise both local and in Toronto and is one of Canada's most cost-effective filming cities.
The City of Hamilton continues to be a community that boasts hundreds of unique filming locations and is consistently growing its ties with government agencies to make this area a cost-effective choice for those in film.
Even more than the tangibles Hamilton's Film and Television Office provides for feature films and major television shows, filming in Hamilton also benefits our shared local economy. Viewed in the city as an important economic sector filming has shown to play an important role in improving revenues across the community; production companies pay residents and businesses for the rental of their properties, local hotels, motels, inns and restaurants house production staff, and because of its multiple advantages over area municipalities, many in the filmmaking community are even now choosing Hamilton as their home.
