Hallmark’s The Journey Ahead: All Filming Locations and Cast Details
Directed by Linda-Lisa Hayter, ‘The Journey Ahead’ is a Hallmark road-trip movie that revolves around Madeline, a famous actress, and a wilderness expert named Sarah. When her travel plan to New York from Los Angeles falls through, the former enlists the help of her assistant’s best friend, Sarah, to reach the Big Apple within 12 days. As both women of two different generations embark on their cross-country trip, they learn valuable lessons from each other.
The movie tells a heartwarming story of how people can learn from one another despite their differences and overcome their problems. Apart from its talented cast, ‘The Journey Ahead’ captivates the viewers with eye-catching visuals. Given the movie’s premise, it introduces the audience to various backdrops that help accurately convey the story. Now, if you want to know where the Hallmark movie was filmed, here’s all the information you need!
The Journey Ahead: Where Was it Filmed?
‘The Journey Ahead’ was primarily filmed in British Columbia, mainly in and around Vancouver, Squamish. The movie’s principal photography commenced under the title ‘The Road Ahead’ in April 2022 and wrapped up in early May of the same year. So, let’s dive in and learn more about the details of the filming locations, shall we?
Squamish, British Columbia
Squamish, a town north of Vancouver, served as one of the primary production locations for ‘The Journey Ahead.’ The cast and crew utilized the Paradise Valley playground, just a few minutes northeast of town, to record a river-rafting rafting scene. Moreover, they seemingly lensed numerous sequences in the Brackendale Art Gallery on Government Road, as well as The Goat bar and the Squamish Farmer’s Market on Cleveland Avenue.
Squamish is highly popular among tourists for its outdoor sports facilities and is full of natural havens that provide breathtaking visuals for moviemakers to use. Surrounded by the Coast Mountains, Squamish provides beautiful hilly backdrops that one cannot help but be in awe of. Naturally, several movies and shows have shot in the area to take advantage of the region’s visual treasure. Other movies taped in Squamish include ‘ Antlers ‘ and ‘Final Destination.’

Vancouver, British Columbia
Vancouver, British Columbia, also hosted the production unit of ‘The Journey Ahead.’ Popularly known as Hollywood North, the city has been used as a backdrop for several movies over the years. Vancouver’s non-descript skyline and well-developed infrastructure lend well to shooting scenes depicting cities worldwide. Hence, you may see the city in the background of several beloved movies, like ‘ Thor: Love and Thunder ‘ and ‘ Honor Society .’
Other Filming Locations in British Columbia
‘The Journey Ahead’ was also filmed in and around Harrison Hot Springs village in the province; it is named after Harrison Lake, located to the north of the community. The cast and crew of the movie traveled to the village and the lake to frame scenes for the movie. Additional sequences were taped near Mount Baker in the Waputik Mountains, located on the border of British Columbia and Alberta. Lastly, pivotal portions were apparently recorded near Vancouver in Burnaby and West Vancouver, a city and district municipality, respectively.
The Journey Ahead Cast
The talented Holly Robinson Peete plays the role of Madeline, a Hollywood star. You may know the actress from her work in ‘ Our Christmas Journey ‘ and ‘ Christmas in Evergreen: Bells Are Ringing .’ Kaylee Bryant essays wilderness expert Sarah in ‘The Journey Ahead’; some of Bryant’s other acting credits include ‘ Legacies ‘ and ‘ Santa Clarita Diet .’ Other cast members include Chanelle Peloso (Katie), Natasha Burnett (Rose), Ash Lee (Dr. Wiseley), and Mark Humphrey (Carl).

Review by Rachel Wagner
The Journey Ahead- I liked this more than expected. We don’t get many stories on female friendship in any movie let alone Hallmark. I liked seeing their relationship grow over the road trip. Both lead actors were solid. I’d watch this again
Review by 🍿🎬🎄JulieC🎄🎬🍿 ★★★½
I liked this friendship centered Hallmard quite a bit. Holly and Kaylee had a great connection and rapport.
On a side note I have never been to NYC and Central Park. But this girl nows that CP scene was not in CP!! So bad.

I laughed out loud when Holly Peete excused herself from the middle of eating dinner to go get a slice of pie in that woman's kitchen. Like she couldn't wait for that woman to serve dessert or something?

'The Journey Ahead' on Hallmark: How Kaylee Bryant's role in Legacies helped her come out as queer
As far as the movie goes, 'The Journey Ahead' focuses on a woman named Madeline (Holly Robinson Peet) who is a famous actress and is agitated with her current lifestyle. However, when life throws a curb in Madeline's life she decides to take matters into her hand. When the young wilderness expert, Sara (Kaylee Bryant) shows up to take Madeline on a road trip across the states from Los Angeles to New York. This is a new experience for her, as the actress was scared to board a flight after a horrid experience. From the very start, you will see a shaky behaviour in Madeline which makes it very evident that she is not happy in her present life situation. Soon, we get to see how Sara's influence in Madeline's life helps her open up and be more comfortable and radiant. They eventually become close friends.
Hallmark's movies stand out especially for their storylines, and 'The Journey Ahead' is another gem added to that list of feel good movies. The best part about the movie is how it shows the journey of Madeline's personality change. It also highlights some important things in life which we often forget to prioritize, like checking in with our parents, live in the moment, and lastly accepting life as it is. The solid writing of the movie is really heart touching. The pace of the movie is really good, and so is the story building along with the journey of them accepting how they can never run from their past.
When it comes to representing the roles, Kaylee Bryant, is seen playing the part of a wilderness expert who was a little star-stumped when she saw Madeline as her client. Still, the way Bryant acted as a confidant and more importantly a friend to Madeline will make you want to call your friends up and talk to them. It also shows that people can be friends regarless their age. Holly Robinson Peete is also seen playing Madeline beautifully in 'The Journey Ahead'.
On the other hand, Mark Humphrey, and Chanelle Peloso has done a splendid job in their supporting roles.
Directed by Linda Lisa Hayter, 'The Journey Ahead' is definitely worth your watch. As the movie reflects the good writing, the actor's great performances will make you lose track of time. More importantly, the movie has scenes which will definitely make you well up and want to rethink about the bonds you have in your life. It makes you wonder how much time you honestly invest in those relationships, especially with your parents.

Wilderness expert Sarah and Hollywood star Madeline could not be more different. They are like oil and water. Between their personalities and their lifestyles, there is no common ground. Thus, the start of this road trip is very rocky.
However, things change when Sarah’s aged vehicle breaks down. Now the two are stuck in a very charming town. There, they begin to find that they have more similarities than differences.
Pretty soon, they learn to trust each other and share their lives. Each has suffered hardships. In sharing that information, the other woman is supportive, and this friendship blooms.

The new season of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon is coming to AMC and AMC+ on Sept. 29. Ahead of the premiere, production in the third season is underway, so there will be more to come from Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus) and his old friend Carol Peletier (Melissa McBride).
The first season of the spinoff series begins in France, putting Daryl into very unfamiliar territory. When the latest renewal was announced, it was revealed that Season 3 would be filmed and set in Spain. Now, new images and video footage shared from the set by visual.shooting on Instagram hint at a visit to London, England. While shooting is still taking place in Spain, a street has been made up to resemble London many years into the apocalypse. It's not clear how much London may be featured in the season, or if Daryl and Carol will actually venture to England. The post can be seen below.
The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3 Gets Exciting Update Ahead of S2 Premiere
The Walking Dead's Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of Daryl Dixon Season 3.
Carol was only featured with a very limited presence in the first season. She'll be playing a much bigger part of the second season, which has been subtitled as The Book of Carol . McBride has spoken about how excited she was for the season, as it was going to explore more aspects of Carol's story that wasn't touched on in the original Walking Dead show. McBride couldn't get too specific , though she hinted about the "repercussions of loss."
Carol Peletier Evolves in The Book of Carol
"Without going into too much detail, we’re doing some things that I wanted to do in the original series," McBride said, per TheWrap . "Deal with things, deal with the repercussions of loss and things like that. Things that just — unspoken things nobody had conversations about, and how everything that they’ve been through really affects them."
The Walking Dead Actor Among New Additions to Twisted Metal Season 2
Twisted Metal Season 2 bolsters its cast as the live-action adaptation brings in a star from The Walking Dead among its many new additions.
She added, "What feels different now is that she’s healed from a lot of that. And she has really harnessed her, I guess warrior self, survivor self, and is now facing a slew of different challenges and coming to terms with things that have happened. It feels like a good progression to me, and I’m really proud of this character. I’m very excited looking forward to what’s coming next.”
It feels like a good progression to me, and I’m really proud of this character. I’m very excited looking forward to what’s coming next.
McBride could be hinting at Carol's unresolved grief about the passing of her daughter. In the second season of The Walking Dead , Carol's daughter, Sophia (Madison Lintz), memorably emerged from a barn as a walker in one of the franchise's most shocking moments. The SDCC trailer for The Book of Carol shows a brief shot of a zombie exiting a door with Carol outside, which looks very similar to the Sophia reveal scene. Perhaps this will trigger painful memories of losing Sophia.

‘The Grand Tour’ presenters share the most memorable moments from the show ahead of the final episode release

After five action-packed seasons, 41 countries, and 187 cars, The Grand Tour is coming to an end, with the final feature-length episode premiering on Prime Video on 13 September .
In the special episode, titled The Grand Tour: One For The Road , Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May head to Zimbabwe in three cars they’ve always wanted to own: a Lancia Montecarlo, a Ford Capri 3-litre, and a Triumph Stag. As they embark on a stunning road trip through Zimbabwe, they say an emotional farewell to their lives together on The Grand Tour .
Clarkson, Hammond, and May spoke about their favourite memories from the series, along with how they chose the cars for their final adventure, and why they wanted the last episode to be a “thank you” to the fans.
How did you come up with the location for the final episode?
Jeremy Clarkson: Although we’ve done some very memorable and very enjoyable specials over the years – like the Middle East and Mongolia ( The Mongolia Special – Survival of the Fattest, 2019 ), and a number of others – the three of us have always agreed that Botswana was our favourite special, probably because it was our first, and so there is nostalgia to that.
Richard Hammond: We knew we wanted to end up on Kubu Island. Beyond that, I think we may have benefited a bit from the experience of making shows through lockdown. We had to strip it back a bit, and it made us think, “Okay, the big bangs and stuff are great, but hang on a minute, let's remember what's at the heart of this show.” And so that was to the fore when we came to say goodbye.
How did you choose the cars?
Jeremy Clarkson: The premise of the original Botswana film was: why, when you leave London and move to Surrey, do you always buy yourself a 4x4? You don’t need one. To prove this, we decided to drive three perfectly ordinary cars across Botswana. I've always liked the premise that cars are much tougher than you think they are. They can take so much punishment; people don't believe how much their car can take before it expires.
So, we did a similar thing this time: the three that we took to Zimbabwe were, on the face of it, ridiculous, but as you can see in the film, they survive. The concept was just driving cars we liked.
James May: I said all along we mustn’t play it for gags, we must have things that we’re genuinely curious about and always wanted. That's always risky with things like cars because inevitably, there's a car you really loved as a kid, but when you get it, it’s crap because it’s 40 or 50 years old.
So, it was a bit risky, but we had to be genuinely invested in our choices because we're not actors. We can't pretend to love things. I know Jeremy's story about looking through the dealership window longingly at the Lancia as a young man is true because I used to go past the same place, and I know exactly what he's talking about.
I had a friend whose parents had a Triumph Stag when I was a kid, and I just thought they seemed amazing. The Stag has a reputation as one of the most unreliable cars ever made but weirdly on this, it kept going all the way through.
Did it feel emotional to film the finale?
Richard Hammond: Not just for the three of us but the entire group. We've worked together for decades and we've been through good times and bad. We've seen each other in jungles covered in leeches, exhausted and grumpy in tents and boiling heat, elated in the most beautiful cities in the world. We’re a great big dysfunctional family, so there were a lot of tears.
Jeremy Clarkson: I'm not saying this in a derogatory way by any means, but James has the emotions of a stone. He just doesn't do emotions, so there were no tears from him. Hammond, yes. I was surprisingly unemotional in a weird way because I can see James and Hammond any time I want to, they’re only a phone call away, and I’m sure we will. And I’ve done enough of the travel, I was worn out by it.
Where I would have been emotional was saying goodbye to the crew because most of them started with us. There's a photograph taken on Kubu Island of Russ Edwards and Casper Leaver (Camera Operator) and Andy Wilman (Executive Producer), who were there on the original crew, and they're still with us. You can’t say that about any other show.
What did you want to achieve with the final film?
James May: I remember saying in an early meeting that it was important that we actually genuinely enjoyed our cars and didn't allow it to descend into too much bickering or aggressive pranking of each other. I also didn't want to be too introverted, emotional or navel-gazing; it had to be joyous. We had to come together and acknowledge our shared enthusiasm. It's quite a tricky balance to strike, I think because it's in our nature to be horrible about each other. And there are a few moments like that, like when I say, “I’m deleting their numbers from my phone” as soon as it’s over. That’s us being quite British and undermining our own feelings, which I think is the right thing to do because that’s genuinely us.
Richard Hammond: We wanted to say “thank you” to the audience. This is the biggest thing to happen in my life ever. It changed my life, it affected my daughters’ lives, my whole family, everything. And that's down to the audience.
I think you will see that this is each of us genuinely saying “thank you”, and the way Andy Wilman put that together – he’s the master behind it. Andy Wilman didn't want it to end on exploding things; he wanted it to be sincere. You don't put on a comedy clown suit to say “thank you”, do you?
What have been the highlights from ‘The Grand Tour’ journey?
Jeremy Clarkson: I have always loved driving into an African city. There’s a buzz in African cities that you don’t get anywhere else. Harare — wow, what a singing, melting pot of busyness and joy that was. Kampala’s the same.
I think the most surprising location in all the years was Mongolia (The Mongolia Special – Survival of the Fattest, 2019). That was incredibly beautiful. It’s carpeted – and I mean completely carpeted – by thyme, rosemary and sage. As you drive along, you just get the smell all day, constantly. And then we drove into a pine forest, and I can still remember that. Mongolia was the nicest smelling country I've ever been to, and the terrain is also visually stunning. For six days, we drove in pretty much a dead straight line, and we never saw a cloud in the sky, a farm animal, a person, a telegraph pole or a pylon – there was simply no evidence that man had ever existed.
Richard Hammond: We’ve always loved Africa, waking up in jungles. I remember in Syria in the desert, we were all staying in this massive tent with about 50 of us, and it was boiling, and I was like, “sod this” so James and I grabbed our gear and decided to sleep in the desert instead. Unfortunately, the incredibly strong and mind-numbingly cold wind shot straight into the sleeping bags. It was just the worst night. We were freezing to death.
There were lots of nights like that. Or I remember lying in a tent in Bolivia at about 35 degrees, full of cockroaches that kept me awake all night. And if it wasn’t the cockroaches, it was the drug runners on mopeds going up and down the dirt track passes.
I remember chasing one of Pablo Escobar’s hippos when we were drunk late at night, trying to get a picture on my phone before thinking, “Hippos are quite dangerous; I probably shouldn’t be doing this.” Lots of stupid, wonderful, privileged moments.
James May: I remember in Chile – or maybe Argentina – staying in a shepherd's hut with simple embroidered bedspreads. I shared a room with Hammond, and it was like an adventure from childhood. It was like going to a holiday cottage somewhere, and it was really brilliant. We did some awful camping all over the world, but it was still quite exciting waking up in the desert or in a rainforest. I wouldn’t have done that were it not for the show.
What we've just done, going across Zimbabwe and into Botswana, I don't know if you could even organise that as a holiday. You could probably pay a posh holiday agent to put that together for you, but it would be extremely expensive, so I’ve seen a lot of places that I simply wouldn’t have done if it hadn't been part of my work.
I’ve thought constantly over the years, “How the hell did this happen?” It really is an enormous privilege, or an enormous stroke of luck, however you want to look at it.
