Current & Upcoming Movies Filmed in Mississauga

Here is a list of current and upcoming movies being filmed in Mississauga. If you hear an explosion, see a house get a horror makeover or Jake Gyllenhaal, it might be for a movie!

Enemy (2013)

The curvy Absolute condo complex in Mississauga, also known as the Marilyn Monroe towers, shows up in the background of a couple of scenes because director Villeneuve loved the look. You can also see some scenes that were shot around the Kaneff buildings around the Mississauga Valley area of the City Centre as seen in the cover shot.

Fun Fact: In the actual movie they are tracking someone that lives on Rathburn Road but anyone that knows Mississauga can see Jake Gyllenhaal is at the Kaneff building.

Movie Synopsis: A mild-mannered college professor (Jake Gyllenhaal) discovers a look-alike actor and delves into the other man’s private affairs.

Carrie (2013)

MGM’s modern take on the 1976 horror film Carrie, starring Julianne Moore and Chloë Grace Moretz, was shot at several locations in Mississauga last summer. The main house in the movie was located in a quaint neighborhood in Mississauga. Check out the trailer to see the house used.

Fun Fact: To shoot at the Mississauga neighbourhood, the production company had to get neighbourhood “buy in” — in this case 80 per cent approval, as per the local film office.

Movie Synopsis:High school can be tough for many teenagers, but for Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz), it’s especially hellish. A shy and awkward teen being raised by a religious zealot (Julianne Moore), Carrie is frequently the target of bullies. But Carrie has a secret talent: She can make things move with her mind
