THE NIGHT MANAGER
Season 2
A deadly game of espionage stretches across London,
Wales, Colombia and Spain as an MI6 officer is pulled from
his quiet surveillance life in London to infiltrate the illegal
arms network of a charismatic Colombian businessman.
From a South Bank flat overlooking the Thames, he
descends into the chaos of Medellín—with its gondolas,
crowded plazas and restless street life—before moving
on to the warmth and seductive glamour of Cartagena
on the Caribbean coast and eventually to a remote
stronghold deep in the Colombian jungle. Tenerife's rugged
volcanic terrain doubles for guerrilla encampments and
isolated conflict zones, while the dramatic landscapes of
the Spanish Pyrenees provide the backdrop for pivotal
negotiations. Haunted by the past and undermined by
duplicity and institutional rot, his mission exposes a
lethal web of arms trafficking, private militias and political
destabilization.
THE DIPLOMAT
Season 3
The action moves between London and New York as the
Ambassador and her husband spar for the VP spot amid an
international crisis. Wrotham Park in Hertfordshire doubles as
the Ambassador's residence, while the real U.S. Embassy at
Nine Elms grounds the series in authentic diplomatic protocol.
On the American side, the 40-acre Seacroft Estate on Long
Island stands in for the President's summer residence, its New
England seaside character providing a beautiful backdrop for
a last-ditch effort to contain a massive leak scandal. Coe Hall
Historic House in Oyster Bay convincingly plays Chequers, the
UK Prime Minister's country retreat. The splendid diplomatic
and private spaces project authority, allowing us to go behind
closed doors as a dark American agenda begins to unravel.
The Diplomat
"The locations were a mix of existing locations playing themselves,
but mostly creative locations doubling for places all over the globe."
-LM Christian Diaz de Bedoya/LMGI, Pluribus
"Together, these environments help create a world that feels authentic and
immersive, allowing the audience to experience the scale, culture and stakes of the
modern energy industry through the places where the story is told."
