With beautiful locations like the Great Barrier Reef, the gorgeous Whitsunday Islands and the enchanting tropics of the Daintree, Queensland is a diverse and picturesque state that offers variety for both locals, tourists and filmmakers.
More and more are choosing to film blockbusters in the Sunshine State, with recent films like Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis which saw a rural town in the Gold Coast transformed into the hometown of the King of Rock ‘N’ Roll, Memphis.
CEO of Screen Queensland, Courtney Gibson said that Queensland’s enviable climate and lifestyle is just one of the many reasons why the state was such a popular destination.
“Queensland’s winning combination of highly experienced crews, excellent studios and facilities, picture-perfect locations and federal and state government incentives attracts some of the world’s leading filmmakers to our shores,” Ms Gibson said.
“As Ron Howard said after filming Thirteen Lives in Queensland, it’s a place where ‘you can just get a lot of good work done’!”
“Queensland also excels at doubling for places like London (in The Portable Door), Sydney (in In Our Blood), Bali (in Ticket to Paradise), Thailand (in Thirteen Lives) and multiple US locations in productions like Thor: Ragnarok, Elvis, Joe vs. Carole, Young Rock and San Andreas.”
Screen Queensland recently announced they are opening a world-class $12.6m development later this year for a brand new production facility in Cairns.
The creative hub in Portsmith will include production offices, editing suites, a sound recording studio and wardrobe facilities.
“As well as production studios on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane, the new Screen Queensland Studios, Cairns facility will be operational later this year, unlocking even more of Far North Queensland’s unique tropical locations to filmmakers,” Ms Gibson said.
“The Queensland Government’s Production Attraction Strategy was introduced in 2015 and is operated by Screen Queensland, often in combination with the Federal Government’s production incentives — it has been enormously successful.
“54 film and series productions (many from overseas and interstate) have been made in Queensland through the strategy, collectively contributing more than $1.73 billion to the state’s economy and creating more than 16,500 jobs for cast and crew.”
“There are a raft of films and series also scheduled to film here soon, but I can’t talk about them just yet!”
As more filmmakers, both local and international, set their eyes upon Qld as the location of their production, it makes us wonder how many well-known blockbusters have been filmed along the shores of Queensland.
Here’s our list of 20+ films shot in Queensland – the iconic, newly released and upcoming - and the locations you may recognise from them.
The iconic
Crocodile Dundee (1986)
A movie that produced the infamous line “That’s not a knife”, Peter Faiman’s world-renowned 1986 film Crocodile Dundee featuring Paul Hogan as an eccentric crocodile hunter put Australia on the map and was the highest grossing film of all time in Australia when it was released.
While the classic Aussie film takes place across various locations around the country, Dundee’s hometown of ‘Walkabout Creek’ is set in the small outback town of McKinlay in northwest Queensland.
Federal Hotel on the Landsborough Highway was the spot of ‘Walkabout Creek Inn’ which was aptly renamed ‘Walkabout Creek Hotel’ after the film’s worldwide success, becoming the top tourist attraction in the small town with a population less than 200 people.
Crocodile Dundee is available to stream on Stan.
Muriel’s Wedding (1994)
P.J. Hogan’s infamous film Muriel’s Wedding is a classic piece of Australian cinema, only made truer by the fact that many of its scenes were filmed in various locations in Queensland, from Tweed Heads to Hamilton Island.
A hilarious and heartwarming story about the social outcast and ABBA-obsessed, Muriel Heslop, played by Toni Collette, and her dreams of tying the knot – Muriel’s Wedding is set in the fictional town of Porpoise Spit, filmed in Coolangatta on the Gold Coast.
In the final scenes of the film, locals may recognise the Pines Shopping Centre in Elanora, shots of Coolangatta Beach and the shot of a Porpoise Spit sign which was filmed on Garrick and Lanham St in Coolangatta.
Hamilton Island and Sea World Resort make up the fictional holiday spot Hibiscus Island where Rhonda (played by Rachel Griffiths) and Muriel lip sync to ABBA’s song ‘Waterloo’ and coined the now infamous phrase “I’m with Muriel”.
The scene from the beginning of the film where Bill Heslop (portrayed by Bill Hunter) coincidently bumps into Deidre Chambers (portrayed by Gennie Nevinson) while out at a Chinese restaurant with his family, also took place in Coolangatta, filmed in a restaurant adjacent to the pop-funk tourist spot, The Pink Hotel, which has become its own iconic destination for its unique hot pink design.
Muriel’s Wedding is currently available to stream on Binge, Foxtel and Netflix.
The Thin Red Line (1998)
With an A-lister cast of Sean Penn, Adrien Brody, George Clooney, John Travolta, Woody Harrelson and more, Terrence Malick’s 1998 war film The Thin Red Line follows U.S. soldiers in a fictionalised telling of the Battle of Mount Austen in the Solomon Islands in 1942.
Only around 1700km from the Solomon Islands, the Daintree Rainforest and Bramston Beach in Far North Queensland were chosen as filming locations for the $52m movie which began filming in June 1997 and concluded after 100 days.
The highest mountain in the state, Mount Bartle Frere, also known as Dancer Mountain, was also used as a filming location which required a two hour journey up hill to transport the 150 actors and 200 crew required for the larger battle scenes.
Other locations included Cairns, Port Douglas and Mossman, with plenty of Australian flora and fauna featuring in the film.
Produced by Australian producer Grant Hill, the film was nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director.

Filmed in Queensland, a small town set was constructed in the semirural town of Guanaba in the Gold Coast specifically for the film along Hollindale Rd, including the actual ‘House of Wax’, along with a gas station, an abandoned house and shops.
Other interior scenes for the film were shot at Village Roadshow Studios in Coomera where a huge candle used for a scene caused a sound stage to catch fire in 2004, leading to the studio burning down and costing millions in damages.
The Guanaba exterior sets were demolished after production concluded.

The majority of the filming took place at Cleveland Point, just 40 minutes from Brisbane, where the royal ship, or the ‘Dawn Treader’ itself, was assembled to film the ocean scenes, offering real ocean horizons on camera and open blue skies.
A dining hall at the Southport School on Winchester St in Southport on the Gold Coast was also used for an interior scene where Edmund (portrayed by Skandar Keynes) attempts to enlist in the army.
The fictional ‘Narrowhaven Wharf’ in the film was the location of a slave auction, located just north of Doug Jennings Park at the Spit on Surfers Paradise, and was built specifically for the film.

Over the two month shoot in 2014, scenes of the split earth were filmed in Lockyer Valley in Gatton, 90km west of Brisbane and 50km west of Ipswich along Tenthill Creek Rd, acting as a Californian rural road with Australian bushland making up the Californian landscape.

Following Hemsworth’s character Thor, the movie is about the God of Thunder and his journey to stop his home world of Asgard being destroyed by super villain Hela, played by Cate Blanchett.
