Ready to see some more superheroes in the city?
The Supergirl TV show will be filming fight scenes in a Yaletown park next week and police will be on-site to assist.
The popular American show is filming its final season in the city, which will air on the CW this year. This show is based on the DC Comics character Supergirl.
A resident notification letter from 137 Productions Inc states that filming will take place Yaletown's George Wainborn Park on June 8 from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. Additionally, the crew will be at the park the previous day and the day after to prepare the set and wrap up.
Filming scenes will include superheroes engaging "heavy fight sequences" and actors may have exposed props [and] weapons." Dialogue may also be in a "yelling or shouting manner."
A drone will be used for the filming scenes and Vancouver police will be on set during the day to assist with stunt sequences and ensure public safety.
There will be temporary "no stopping" zones on the 500-600 blocks of Beach Crescent on June 7 and on the south side of the 400 block of Beach Crescent on June 8.
