In short:
Hollywood productions are rolling into Wyndham, with Liam Neeson, Stan, and ABC filming across Werribee, Point Cook, and Werribee South.
From quiet suburban streets to windswept coastal shores, Wyndham is fast becoming a favourite filming location for international and Australian productions alike. In recent years, our neighbourhood has played host to a string of high-profile shoots that have brought a touch of Hollywood glamour — and a welcome buzz — to Werribee, Werribee South, and Point Cook. Here’s a look at the big productions that rolled into town and made our local streets their stage.

Neighbours
– A Soap Staple Visits Werribee South
Filmed: March 2022
Long-running soap opera Neighbours has filmed all over Melbourne, but it made a quiet detour to Werribee South in March 2022 for a special episode. Locals got a thrill spotting the crew and cast in the area, with some familiar locations making cameo appearances.
WyndhamTV captured the action, giving die-hard fans and longtime residents alike a peek behind the curtain. For a show that’s been a staple of Australian TV for decades, its visit to Werribee South was a nod to the suburb’s scenic potential.

War Machine

Filmed: November 2024
Church Street was anything but ordinary when War Machine, a futuristic sci-fi action flick, arrived with armoured vehicles and camera crews in tow. Featuring Hollywood names like Alan Ritchson and Dennis Quaid, the production transformed parts of Werribee into a dystopian world.
Local properties were dressed for the big screen, and residents peeked out windows to see movie magic unfolding on their doorstep. WyndhamTV was there to document the moment, bringing exclusive photos and updates to curious locals.

Family Next Door
– ABC Drama Finds Beauty at Campbell’s Cove
Filmed: November 2024
Filming doesn’t get much more picturesque than Campbell’s Cove — and ABC’s Family Next Door capitalised on that. With the area’s rustic boatsheds and seaside charm, the production created an evocative atmosphere for this Australian drama.
WyndhamTV gave followers an inside look at the production, which brought a flurry of activity to the usually tranquil stretch of coastline. For fans of Aussie drama — and proud locals — it was a special moment to see such familiar scenery celebrated on screen.

All Her Fault
– Sarah Snook Thriller Transforms Point Cook
Filmed: November 2024
In one of Point Cook’s most unexpected moments of fame, Saltwater Community Centre was turned into a school setting for the psychological thriller All Her Fault, starring Sarah Snook.
Locals were abuzz with speculation and sightings, and WyndhamTV was on-site to keep everyone informed. It’s not every day a global streaming star like Snook brings her next big role to your local centre — but in Wyndham, it’s becoming less surprising.
🎬
The Mongoose
– Liam Neeson Brings Action to Werribee South
Filmed: March 2025
Scenes for The Mongoose, a high-octane thriller starring Liam Neeson, were filmed along Diggers Road in Wyndham. While it’s unconfirmed whether Neeson himself was on location, the production brought road closures, drone activity, and major excitement to the area.
WyndhamTV kept the community updated with behind-the-scenes details. It was a rare brush with international cinema — and a reminder that even Wyndham’s quiet rural roads can set the scene for big-screen action.

Gnomes
– Stan’s Quirky Horror-Comedy at Werribee South General Store
Filmed: June 2025
Werribee South turned whimsical when Stan’s horror-comedy Gnomes was filmed at the General Store. Starring Asa Butterfield and Megan Smart, the production blended eerie humour with Aussie charm — and locals couldn’t resist stopping by for a glimpse.
Trucks lined the streets, signs were changed, and the store became a spooky centrepiece for this offbeat series. WyndhamTV kept the community posted, and social media buzzed with fan sightings and speculation.
🎞️ Final Take
From international thrillers to quirky Aussie series, Wyndham has quietly built a reputation as a versatile filming location.
