Back in Action was filmed using Shepperton Studios and locations in London and elsewhere in England, with scene-level location reporting also placing parts of the film in Atlanta, Georgia, and Slovenia. Some places shown on screen are altered or stand in for different story settings, so a setting named in the film is not necessarily where the scene was shot.
Where was Back in Action filmed?
The clearest production-side confirmation comes from Uni-versal Extras, which says it worked on the film at Shepperton Studios and in London and lists Shepperton Film Studios as a filming location: Uni-versal Extras. TheWrap also reports that the end credits acknowledge Shepperton Studios, the Georgia Film Office, and the Republic of Slovenia, while referencing a Canadian production-services tax credit with Quebec specifically mentioned: TheWrap. Those credit acknowledgments suggest production ties, but do not identify the location of any particular scene.
For specific scene matches, Atlas of Wonders identifies locations in England, Atlanta, and Slovenia. Those matches are best understood as location-guide identifications, rather than production call-sheet confirmation: Atlas of Wonders.
Which scenes were filmed in Slovenia?
Atlas of Wonders identifies the opening establishing shot as Ljubljana. The guide says the palace shown as Matt and Emily’s lodging is not a single real building as presented: the image was composited, with a building near St. James Bridge in Ljubljana’s historic center used as the backdrop. It also identifies a house in the Trenta Valley in the Julian Alps as a filming location.

Which English locations appear in the film?
Shepperton Studios and London
Uni-versal Extras confirms work at Shepperton Studios and in London. The film’s credits also acknowledge Shepperton Studios, according to TheWrap. The production therefore combined studio work with location filming.
Waddesdon Manor
Atlas of Wonders identifies Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire as the filming location for Balthazar Gor’s mansion. In the story, the mansion is presented as being in the Czech Republic; the reported filming location is in England.
Diamond Hangar at Stansted Airport
The location guide identifies Diamond Hangar at Stansted Airport as the setting used for the scene involving MI6 agent Baron Andrews. It says the snowy mountain backdrop was added digitally.
Foxhound Manor in Surrey
Atlas of Wonders identifies a large Surrey mansion and estate as Foxhound Manor, Ginny Curtis’s home, and reports that interior scenes were filmed there. Its page does not name the property, so its identity should not be guessed.

Wembley Stadium as Heathrow
Scenes presented as Heathrow Airport were filmed at Wembley Stadium, according to Atlas of Wonders. It is one of the clearest examples of a real filming place standing in for a different place in the story.
London streets, landmarks, and chase locations
Atlas of Wonders places a street scene on West Park Road near Kew Gardens station. It identifies Tate Modern as the start of the final action sequence, with Matt and Emily running across Millennium Bridge just before it. Netflix Tudum’s search excerpt also describes the climax at Tate Modern, though the page itself was unavailable during retrieval; the detailed location matches here come from the location guide.
Rank #4
The same guide associates the Thames Barrier with a river sequence, Bankside and a tunnel near Zizzi by Southwark Bridge with the motorbike chase, and the walkway at Butler’s Wharf Pier with Matt’s jump onto a boat, with Tower Bridge visible in the background. These are reported scene identifications, not independently confirmed production records.

Atlas of Wonders identifies Tongue & Groove, near the Lindbergh MARTA station, as the nightclub location, attributing that match to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It also places parts of a car chase on Silver Hill Terrace in the Eastside Walk/Gresham Park area and in Mozley Park and Ashview Heights, west of downtown. The guide does not establish the actual location of the family home or whether it was filmed at a real residence or on a set.

Are the film’s locations open to visitors?
Filming at a place does not mean it is open to casual visitors. The sources identify locations but do not establish current access, opening hours, tours, or photography permissions. Check the official venue or property information before planning a visit, particularly for working studios, private estates, operational sites, and businesses.
