Where was Netflix’s Meet Me Next Christmas Filmed?

Date:

Netflix is coming out with a holiday romantic comedy called Meet Me Next Christmas. It promises laughs, love, and a lot of holiday spirit. The movie is directed by Rusty Cundieff, written by Molly Haldeman and Camilla Rubis, and produced by Mark Roberts. Christina Milian plays Layla in the movie. The story is about Layla’s exciting race through New York City to meet her crush James at the Pentatonix Christmas Eve Concert, which is sold out. Layla and her loyal friend Teddy (Devale Ellis) get lost in the city, where they run into holiday surprises and funny turns as they try to make this Christmas one to remember.

Meet Me Next Christmas Story

In Meet Me Next Christmas, Christina Milian plays Layla, who is determined to get back in touch with James (Kofi Siriboe), the charming man she wants to spend the holidays with. When all the tickets to the Pentatonix Christmas Eve Concert are gone, Layla has to get creative. She and Teddy run across the city together. The story shows how magical New York City is at Christmas, with its bright lights, famous landmarks, and the Christmas spirit running through every scene.

Meet Me Next Christmas story

Milian says that her character’s journey is like a “treasure hunt for love,” which reflects the themes of determination and magic that are common this time of year. “There is a sense of love and anticipation,” she says, adding that Layla’s unwavering hope and determination make her a relatable and inspiring heroine. Now, let’s proceed to Meet Me Next Christmas filming locations.

Toronto, Ontario was used as a film location.

The movie Meet Me Next Christmas takes place in the busy streets of New York City, but it was shot in Toronto, Ontario. From March 27 to May 1, 2023, the main filming took place. Some parts of Toronto were turned into a wintery, holiday-themed New York by using famous buildings and carefully decorated sets to make the movie feel festive.

A lot of the filming took place in and around Old Toronto and the Entertainment District in Toronto. In each scene, the streets were decorated with fake snow and Christmas lights to make it feel like Christmas. The old Royal Alexandra Theatre on 260 King Street West is one of the most interesting places in the movie. The theater’s marquee and the area around it were shown in a way that made it look like it was in New York.

Cinespace Studios Toronto, including the Cinespace Marine Terminal Studio, was used for scenes that needed to take place inside. Since 2019, Netflix has rented out sound stages at these studios. With their huge 25,000-square-foot sound stages, these facilities let the filmmakers create realistic interiors of New York City in a safe setting. Netflix productions often use Cinespace Studios, especially for scenes that need to look real and have a lot of small details.

The cast had great things to say about Toronto. They liked how charming it was and how well it could stand in for New York City. Christina Milian said that even though the movie was shot in the spring, the winter costumes helped her stay in the holiday spirit, even if the weather wasn’t always appropriate for a Christmas scene. She said that Toronto was a wonderful and fulfilling place to bring Layla’s story to life.

Devale Ellis, who plays Teddy, Layla’s strange but loyal friend, was excited about the holiday music in the movie, especially Pentatonix’s appearance. Ellis said it was great to work with Christina and the Pentatonix. “The music really changes the mood of the movie and makes it feel like Christmas.” It was also said by his co-star Milian that having Pentatonix in the movie added a special touch, especially for fans who think of their music as holiday fun.

Pentatonix Gets People in the Holiday Spirit

Pentatonix’s lively music is a big part of the movie, and the band even makes guest appearances. “They’re so talented” Milian said. I love what they add to the movie. There are times when they just talk, but they sing too. Fans of holiday movies can look forward to both a sweet love story and a musical extravaganza that captures the magic of Christmas.
