Hungary seems to be an attractive country for Hollywood productions. Many crews come to the country to film entire movies or shoot a few scenes. Besides the splendid sights, favourable taxes are a factor to be considered as well.
As Daily News Hungary reported, Hungary is established as a sought-after place when it comes to filmmaking. The Hungarian capital is one of the favourite locations of Marvel, for example, but Netflix is shooting in the country quite often, too.
In 2022, one of the productions that were shot in Hungary was Borderlands. Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee Curtis star in the movie, and the actors were seen in Budapest. Jamie Lee Curtis, for example, also posted a picture of Buda Castle on Instagram. The actress is the daughter of Tony Curtis, who was of Hungarian descent.
