The Other Black Girl might have been shot in a studio famous for Marvel films

The Other Black Girl might have been filmed in either of the studios listed above or some other in Atlanta. Details of the same have not been disclosed officially. However, if the forthcoming series was filmed in Trilith Studios, it housed its production in the largest production facility in Georgia.

Trilith Studios, in operation since 2013, has witnessed the shooting of many TV programs and films. Several Marvel flicks, like Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021), Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022), and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023), were filmed there.

Even the team attached to the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World (2024) will set up camp in Trilith Studios. Among the TV series that found the base in the studio include Family Feud (2021), Hawkeye (2021), Ms. Marvel (2022), She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022), and Werewolf by Night (2022), among others.

Ironheart (2024) and Agatha: Darkhold Diaries (2024) will be filmed in Trilith Studios as well.

This aside, several top TV productions were shot in and around the city of Atlanta, too, like Stranger Things, The Walking Dead, The Vampire Diaries, Miracle Workers, etc. The Bellwood Quarry (located at Chappell Rd NW, Atlanta) played a significant role in Netflix’s Stranger Things. In the said spot, the fake body of Will Byers (played by Noah Schnapp) was found.
