Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

Canary Black was first introduced at the 2022 Cannes Film Market as a spy thriller directed by Pierre Morel, written by Matthew Kennedy, and starring Kate Beckinsale.[1] At the American Film Market later that year, the first images of the production were released as Anton put the film up for sale.[2]

Filming began in Croatia in October 2022,[3] and it would continue through January 2023.[4] Filming took place primarily in Zagreb, where shooting interrupted service for several trams in Zagreb to control the environment of the outdoor action sequences,[5][4] which included Beckinsale flying over the city from a drone and hanging from rooftops.[6] Filming in Zagreb utilized the Dinamo Zagreb's Stadion Maksimir as a movie set, and the city of Rovinj doubled for Tokyo.[4]
