Amazon’s Fourth Wing Series Reportedly Set to Begin Filming in Vancouver

Fourth Wing went viral on BookTok in 2023 and built a fan base around the world. Thousands of devoted readers are now waiting for Amazon’s adaptation of their favorite romantasy series. New details suggest the show is close to leaving pre-production. Recent reports reveal the filming window and location, which lets fans guess at the real-world setting that will stand in for Navarre and Basgiath War College.

Empyrean fans have been looking for ways to fill the time until the sequel to the third book, Onyx Storm. Rebecca Yarros keeps writing, so readers have options. She continues to publish contemporary fiction, and she has also released a Fourth Wing graphic novel and a spin-off called Threshing Day. Many fans have also followed the progress of Amazon’s Fourth Wing series closely.

Not long ago, Amazon cast its lead actors, and fans were eager to learn who would play the two main characters. Esther McGregor (Babygirl, We Were Liars) will play Violet Sorrengail. Emilio Sakraya (Warrior Nun) will play Xaden Riorson.

Amazon hasn’t announced the rest of the cast. Casting should wrap up soon, though, because a shooting location and schedule appear to be set. The report comes from Hollywood North Buzz, a website that covers shows and movies filmed in British Columbia. According to the site, Amazon’s Fourth Wing is expected to begin filming in Vancouver, Canada, on Apr. 5, 2027.

It’s unknown whether the production will shoot in other locations. Filming in Vancouver will last seven months and end on Nov. 8, 2027. Everything known so far about the Fourth Wing series points to a 2028 release, which is well possible if the show enters post-production at the end of 2027. The release date of the next Fourth Wing book is also a mystery. Fans can hope it arrives by the time the show reaches Prime Video.
