Disney+ New ”National Treasure” series begins filming in Baton Rouge

Filming has begun for the upcoming ”National Treasure” series coming to Disney+ streaming service.

A film crew was spotted in south Baton Rouge Tuesday as production got underway for National Treasure. The television series is said to be an expansion of the earlier films.

Jerry Bruckheimer has returned to produce the National Treasure series with original franchise writing duo Marianne and Cormac Wibberley. Mira Nair (Queen of Katwe) is set to direct the pilot episode.

The series will not only feature Ideal Market as a backdrop, but employees who work there as well. A Baton Rouge news anchor shared the film crew photos on their Twitter account.
