Amazon’s female-centric global sci-fi series The Power has a Vancouver shoot this summer.

Adapted from Naomi Alderman’s novel, The Power is about a group of teenage girls who mysteriously develop a special power that allows them to electrocute people at will.

Originally The Power had planned to film in Vancouver in the Spring of 2020 but the Covid-19 pandemic put a stop to that.

Production started in the U.K. in 2021 and filmed in a number of locations including Fairford, Lechlade, a large convent on the outskirts of Bowdsey and the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre in south London.. From the U.K., The Power went on to film in Nambia.

Suddenly, and without warning, all teenage girls in the world develop the power to electrocute people at will.

And everything is different.
