🌸🎬 Sweet Magnolias is back! 🎬🌸

We are so excited to see the new season of Netflix Sweet Magnolias and even more thrilled that a portion of the season finale was filmed right here in Savannah! πŸ’›

We were honored to help welcome the production to our city, and it was wonderful to see Savannah highlighted in Netflix's article about the new season.

As showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson shared with Netflix Tudum:

β€œSavannah is picturesque, romantic, and also just has that special β€˜sunlight constantly filtered through old trees’ kind of gauziness that really sells the South. It just seemed like a fun place to go!”

We couldn't agree more. 🌳✨

πŸŽ₯ Have you started watching "Cape Fear" on Apple TV yet?

If so, keep your eyes peeled for a few familiar Savannah shout-outs. πŸ‘€

We spotted a Leopold's Ice Cream shirt and even heard a mention of Savannah Coffee Roasters - two local favorites making an appearance on the screen. Did you happen to see the Jepson Center?

There's always something exciting about seeing Savannah represented in major productions, whether it's our iconic locations, local businesses, or the city's unmistakable character.
