Last week, Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³» shared a resident notification letter for the production, which is about the influential gospel singer's life and legacy.
Filming for an American TV show called Motherland: Fort Salem will also take place at Riverview Hospital in Coquitlam today, by @WhatsFilming.
The show is about three young women who use witchcraft in "combat magic."
Filming also continues in North Vancouver, and a local took to Twitter to share a video of the set for some at Spur4 in the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve.
Something has been setting up for the past 5 days here at Spur4 in the LSCR, no signs around🤔

This month in Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»film
Vancouverites took to Twitter earlier this month to share images of the film set for The Mysterious Benedict Society in Gastown, as well as to share information about upcoming filming times and locations.
The set called for "background actors in costume" as well as picture décor in the alleyway south of the 300 block of Water Street; several old-fashioned cars lined the streets of Gastown.
ABC's A Million Little Things was also filming in Gastown this month, and Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Police assisted with a temporary road closure of the 100 block of Alexander Street.
November 2019 in Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Film
On Nov.1, 2019, the City of Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»warned residents that there would be a film shoot with highly visible graphic content in Gastown.
The shoot, which involved multiple mock dead bodies and even a mock dead police horse, transformed the city streets into a post-apocalyptic hellscape. Based on the horror novel The Stand by Stephen King, the set design for the TV series “Radio Nowhere” called for a great deal of disturbing imagery, dialogue and noise.
The set for the Warner Brothers T.V. series “Batwoman” also called for some high-action content, including the use of exposed weapons, a van that crashed into a motorcycle, and atmospheric smoke.
