Filming in July: Anthony Hemingway to Direct Upcoming Series 'Boston Blue (Season 2)' in Toronto, Canada

Production crews, get ready — the gripping police procedural Boston Blue is officially moving into its second season, and cameras are expected to roll this July in Toronto, Canada. With a strong creative team and high-stakes storytelling, the show’s return signals another round of exciting on-set opportunities for talent and crew alike.

Anthony Hemingway, known for his acclaimed work on The Wire, American Crime Story, and Shameless, returns to direct Season 2. His cinematic approach and proven ability to handle layered ensemble casts will once again shape the show’s distinct tone. The upcoming season is said to deepen its exploration of corruption, community, and legacy within Boston’s law enforcement system, continuing the show’s commitment to balancing gritty realism with powerful human drama.

Though details are tightly under wraps, sources indicate that Toronto will serve as the principal shooting location once again, doubling for Boston. The city’s diverse locations and seasoned film crews have made it a reliable production base for many top-tier series. As such, local union crew members and vendors should keep an eye out for job listings as departments staff up.

While casting announcements for new characters are expected soon, the core ensemble from Season 1 is likely to return. The series has been praised for its strong performances and complex characters — a mix of veteran officers, ambitious rookies, and community voices who each bring depth to the world of Boston Blue.

The project is backed by a major streamer, with production services expected to run through established Canadian partners. Post-production is tentatively planned to remain in Ontario, following the model of the first season.

With a summer shoot window and a 2027 release target, Boston Blue Season 2 is one to watch — and one to work on. For those looking to break into high-quality serialized drama or return to a tightly run, story-driven set, this production offers a compelling opportunity.

Stay tuned as more information becomes available, including department heads, hiring contacts, and vendor needs, as pre-production heats up.
