Morocco is once again drawing international attention as a premier filming destination, hosting the production of season two of the popular American action-thriller series The Terminal List, produced by Amazon Prime Video.
The series’ production team has been working across multiple Moroccan cities, including Marrakech, Casablanca, and Tangier, completing five of the eight planned episodes.
The choice of Morocco reflects the country’s growing reputation in the global film industry. Its diverse landscapes—from modern urban centres to historic medinas and vast deserts—combined with well-equipped filming infrastructure, provide producers with visually striking settings while keeping production costs competitive.
“Morocco offers a unique combination of locations, professional crews, and infrastructure that meets the demands of major international productions,” a local industry source said.
“It is no surprise that Hollywood and global streaming platforms continue to choose the kingdom for high-profile projects.”
The Moroccan film industry views such productions as a major economic and cultural opportunity. International shoots create jobs, stimulate the local economy, and foster the transfer of technical skills. In addition, they enhance Morocco’s global visibility as a hub for cinema and television production, positioning it alongside other leading destinations such as Spain, Italy, and South Africa.
“The Terminal List” is not only a boon for local actors and technicians but also reinforces Morocco’s ability to host large-scale, complex productions under optimal conditions. Its favourable climate and strategic geographical location allow year-round filming, giving international producers flexibility and reliability that few other destinations can match.
In recent years, Morocco has leveraged these advantages to attract a growing number of global productions, from blockbuster films to acclaimed TV series. By combining natural beauty, modern facilities, and skilled professionals, the kingdom continues to strengthen its status as a key player in the international audiovisual industry.
As the season two production of The Terminal List progresses, Morocco’s film sector anticipates further opportunities to expand its expertise, attract foreign investment, and cement its reputation as a leading destination for international cinematic projects.
