Renowned filmmaker Woody Allen has chosen the Community of Madrid as the exclusive setting for his upcoming cinematic project, with filming scheduled to commence on October 5.

The production will be shot entirely within the Madrid territory, and a significant detail is that the capital's name will be included in the film's official title, emphasizing the direct connection between the narrative and the region.
The regional government, through Film Madrid Region, is actively collaborating with the production team. This collaboration includes advising on location scouting and facilitating communication with various municipalities. According to officials from the Audiovisual Office, the reception from Madrid's towns has been very positive, which will allow the film to capture the architectural and natural diversity of the area.

Allen's new work is described as a contemporary comedy that will highlight emblematic places in the region. The institutional support for this project aims to promote Madrid internationally, consolidating it as a reference destination and generating increased tourism thanks to the film's visual impact globally.
The project will have a worldwide reach, with a planned premiere at an international festival and three prior presentations in major foreign capitals. It is expected that the New York director's vision will serve as a global showcase to position the Community of Madrid in the top-tier film and tourism market.
