Early Filming Activity in Liverpool This week, film vehicles were spotted around central Liverpool, giving fans a first look at the production returning to the city. A damaged Gotham Police cruiser was also seen near Queensway Tunnel, adding to the growing buzz. Sources indicate that this stage of activity is part of a technical recce. The production team is not filming full scenes yet. Instead, they are testing locations and preparing for the main shoot. Principal photography is expected to start next month.

One of the most memorable scenes showed Batman flying past the Liver Building, which stood in for the Gotham City Police Department headquarters. The city has become a popular filming hub for major productions. Recent projects include a four part Beatles biopic directed by Sam Mendes, along with TV dramas such as Hamburg Days, The Cage, and This City is Ours. In 2025, the spin off Clayface was also filmed in Liverpool. Several scenes were shot around Liverpool Crown Court in Derby Square, with release planned for October.
