Filming Locations: Where was Logan filmed?

Posted by

The third installment of the saga based on the character of Wolverine (the tenth in the X-Men film series), takes place in the near future.

Logan is getting old and tired, and he's hiding from the world with Professor X, who can't control his powers because of Alzheimer's.

Where was Logan filmed

In this decadent context, the arrival of a young mutant called Laura Kinney (Dafne Keen), will spark the action of this story also starring Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart.

Logan was primarily filmed in the states of Louisiana, New Mexico, and Mississippi, and here are some of the most interesting filming locations for this new Marvel movie. No spoilers ahead!

Logan Locations
In the state of Louisiana, the crew was filming in Amite City, near Bell Road and Husser.

The scene pictured was shot in the Greenlawn Cemetery in Hammond.

  1. Eden appears to be the area of Abiquiu, NM, as it resembles Plaza Blanca. Near the end, when Laura is looking through the large binoculars, Cerro Pedernal is clearly visible in the frame. Artist Georgia O'Keeffe's ashes were scattered atop this mesa as it was her favorite. Posted by Room 111 Photography 08 April 2017.

  2. The gas station is the 66 Pit Stop located on the western outskirts of Albuquerque, New Mexico within the boundaries of the Laguna Pueblo reservation. The 66 Pit Stop is also home to one of the best green chile cheeseburgers in New Mexico.

  3. The final scenes in the movie had to be in Oregon. I spent 45 days there last summer exploring the entire state and the small body of water in front of the bluffs looks exactly like a place in a state park that I visited. The forest and the entire landscape looks like Oregon to me.

    1. The final scene had to be in Northern New Mexico. Oregon is much more green and New Mexico has 4 out of the 5 climates.

    2. It was filmed in Chama New Mexico at Corkin's Lodge.

  4. None of the scenes looked like South or North Dakota. So why the kept saying they were coming here didn't add up. There are no trees or mountains in the dakotas

    3. I used to live in Rapid City, SD. The entire southwest corner of South Dakota is an ancient mountain range - ever heard of the Black Hills? And yes, they are *definitely* covered with trees (the Black Hills National Forest), primarily the ponderosa pine and Black Hills spruce. Just a few Google image searches of phrases like "Spearfish Canyon", "Roughlock Falls", or the "Needles Highway" should display some impressive images. Also, Spearfish SD at the northern end of the Black Hills is only an hour's drive from Devil's Tower in Wyoming, which I believe is part of the same geological formation as the Black Hills.

  5. The high school looks like the Highland High School in Albuquerque where I went to school. Is the same high school?
