Vancouverites took to social media this week to share photos and videos from the set of the TV show Supergirl this week.
The popular American TV show is filming its final season in the city, which will debut on the CW this year. This show is based on the DC Comics character, Supergirl.
A local shared a video of Melissa Benoist--the lead actress who plays Supergirl--jumping in the air right outside of their office.
137 Productions Inc, the production company, also shared a resident notification letter this week informing locals that the crew would be on set Wednesday (April 14) to Friday (April 16) filming in various locations downtown.
Have a look at some photos and videos Vancouverites shared on social media.

UBC ranked #3 most filmed location in Canada
A new study finds that the University of British Columbia is the third most-filmed location in Canada.
NetCredit, a licensed online financial services provider for mid-size personal loans, dug through 120 years of film history to uncover the most popular filming locations in every country around the world.
The company found that the most-filmed location in the world is Central Park in New York City, with 532 movie credits. Popular films such as John Wick, Ghostbusters, Home Alone 2, and Enchanted were filmed there.
In Canada, the study found that Niagara Falls in Ontario was the most-filmed location, with 142 credits. The breathtaking Banff National Park in Alberta followed in second (71 credits), with UBC placing third (51 credits).
