In recent days, a scouting team from Sony Pictures visited Puerto Vallarta to look for possible locations for a project they are currently preparing, according to Rodolfo Guzmán, director of the Filming Commission from the State of Jalisco.
Guzmán explained that the Sony Pictures team, with director Rafael Lara (“Red Lips”, “Cinco de Mayo: La Battle”) at the head, visited different corners of Puerto Vallarta. Among the points they visited were luxury hotels, the marina, the boardwalk and the Parish of the Virgin of Guadalupe, among other places. “They ended up excited with what they saw. They will decide what works for the project they have in mind. ”
At the moment, the name of the project or the genre of the series is not yet known, although everything indicates that Puerto Vallarta would play host to the filming of several scenes. The Sony Pictures team will meet with the Filming Commission again in the coming weeks to take the next steps.
The presence of Sony Pictures in the State of Jalisco joins other national and international productions that are already in the process of filming or about to start recordings in various parts of the State.
