Filmed in Westchester
Lights, Camera, Action…Westchester!
Ever get that “Haven’t I been here before?” feeling when traveling?
In Westchester, there’s a good reason the scenery looks familiar — you’ve been seeing our County for years as the setting for countless TV series and movies.
Proximity to New York City, convenient sound stages in Yonkers, and every possible backdrop — from a 19th-century Gothic Revival mansion to famed Sing Sing Prison — make Westchester a popular pick for film crews.
We have suburban areas and idyllic towns — check out FBI: Most Wanted. We have artsy downtowns — check out Divorce. We have historic estates — featured on The Gilded Age. And we have one-of-a-kind spots like Rye’s Art Deco Playland amusement park — remember the grant-a-wish scene in Tom Hanks’ Big?
You’ll see Westchester in films like The Instigators with Matt Damon, The Post, starring Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep, and Martin Scorcese’s The Irishman.
