Posted by Ra Moon
The third installment of the saga based on the character of Wolverine, Logan, was filmed primarily in Louisiana and New Mexico.
In the tenth film of the X-Men series, set in 2029, Logan is old and tired and hides from the world with Professor X, who can't control his powers because of Alzheimer's.

Against this decadent backdrop, the arrival of a young mutant called Laura Kinney (played by Dafne Keen) will spark the action of this story, also starring Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart.
Released in 2017, the movie was widely praised for its gripping storytelling, emotional depth, and powerful performances.
Here is our spoiler-free guide to all the filming locations of Logan. We've broken the movie down into the key sites, ordered by first appearance.
The Logan locations
In the movie, the fictional Greenwood Cemetery was actually the Green Lawn Cemetery in Hammond, Louisiana.
As NOLA.com reported, the hospital where Logan picks up the medicine is the old Charity Hospital in New Orleans.
Charity Hospital was established in 1736 and was one of the oldest continuously operating hospitals in the United States until its closure due to Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

The elaborate set, which includes a toppled water tower, was built outside the Northern Meadows community in Rio Rancho, New Mexico.
The interiors were filmed on a soundstage at Big Easy Studios located at the NASA Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans.

The Liberty Motel was the Aloha Motel located under the intersection of Airline Drive and Causeway Boulevard in Metairie, Louisiana.
The motel was completely demolished between 2021 and 2022.

The hotel and casino in Oklahoma City were filmed at Harrah's New Orleans Hotel.
Located in the heart of downtown New Orleans, adjacent to the Mississippi River and close to popular attractions such as the French Quarter and the Superdome, the interior was filmed on the casino's gaming floor.

However, the exterior where the valet parking scene takes place was filmed at the Sugar Bowl Drive entrance to the Superdome.
The production had planned to shoot the exterior scenes at Harrah's. However, a week before shooting was scheduled to begin, a sinkhole unexpectedly appeared on Canal Street, just outside the casino.

The car dealer scene was filmed under the same intersection in Metairie as the motel scene but on the north side.
Gennaro's Bar is the oldest bar in Metairie, open since 1937.

Eden appears to be the area of Abiquiu, NM, as it resembles Plaza Blanca. Near the end, when Laura is looking through the large binoculars, Cerro Pedernal is clearly visible in the frame. Artist Georgia O'Keeffe's ashes were scattered atop this mesa as it was her favorite. Posted by Room 111 Photography 08 April 2017.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your help!
DeleteAlso mount Fremont
DeleteThe gas station is the 66 Pit Stop located on the western outskirts of Albuquerque, New Mexico within the boundaries of the Laguna Pueblo reservation. The 66 Pit Stop is also home to one of the best green chile cheeseburgers in New Mexico.
ReplyDeleteThe final scenes in the movie had to be in Oregon. I spent 45 days there last summer exploring the entire state and the small body of water in front of the bluffs looks exactly like a place in a state park that I visited. The forest and the entire landscape looks like Oregon to me.
ReplyDeleteThe final scene had to be in Northern New Mexico. Oregon is much more green and New Mexico has 4 out of the 5 climates.
DeleteIt was filmed in Chama New Mexico at Corkin's Lodge.
DeleteNone of the scenes looked like South or North Dakota. So why the kept saying they were coming here didn't add up. There are no trees or mountains in the dakotas
ReplyDeleteHad to make it seem they were coming from the south to the north.
DeleteYou clearly haven't been to the Dakota's...ever heard of Mt. Rushmore....
DeleteI used to live in Rapid City, SD. The entire southwest corner of South Dakota is an ancient mountain range - ever heard of the Black Hills? And yes, they are *definitely* covered with trees (the Black Hills National Forest), primarily the ponderosa pine and Black Hills spruce. Just a few Google image searches of phrases like "Spearfish Canyon", "Roughlock Falls", or the "Needles Highway" should display some impressive images. Also, Spearfish SD at the northern end of the Black Hills is only an hour's drive from Devil's Tower in Wyoming, which I believe is part of the same geological formation as the Black Hills.
DeleteThe high school looks like the Highland High School in Albuquerque where I went to school. Is the same high school?
ReplyDeleteYes, I thought that I saw the Highland gym - go Hornets!
DeleteYes, it also kept the Highland Hornets name.
ReplyDeleteI'm watching the movie as I write this. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it but the scene where Logan buys the truck was in a parking lot across from Gennaro's,which is in Metairie,Louisiana.the bar scene is in Gennaro's I used to work there
ReplyDeleteWhat about the cheap motel? Is that in Metarie? And is that the same motel in "Family of Lies"??
