The stunning marble quarries of Volakas, nestled in the mountainous municipality of Kato Nevrokopi in Drama, have become the backdrop for a new Netflix film featuring some of Hollywood’s brightest stars. This striking landscape now hosts filming with a star-studded cast, including Vincent Cassel, Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Evans, Salma Hayek, and Sam Richardson, making the Greek marble quarries a memorable cinematic setting.
The film, directed by Romain Gavras (son of famed director Costa-Gavras) and co-written by Will Arbery, known for his work on the acclaimed Succession series, has generated quite a buzz. Although the plot is shrouded in secrecy, the anticipation is palpable. Filming will continue until November 2nd, with the region’s dramatic landscapes adding a distinct visual flair to the production.
Setting up a film shoot in Volakas involved constructing specialized platforms and support areas within the quarry site. Production will also extend along the road leading to the nearby Falakro Ski Center, integrating the wild beauty of the local terrain to create a dynamic backdrop for key scenes.
