List of films shot in Toronto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A film crew prepares a scene for the film Suicide Squad, on Bay Street, Toronto

Film production is an industry in the Greater Toronto Area, with the City of Toronto being colloquially referred to as Hollywood North.[note 1] The city is home to a number of film production companies, as well as Canada's largest film studio, Pinewood Toronto Studios.

A number of films shot in the city use Toronto as a setting in film. However, the majority of non-Canadian films that were shot in Toronto, do not explicitly use the city as the setting for the film being shot. Many American produced films use the city as a stand in for New York City or Chicago.
