This Is Where Cold Pursuit Was Actually Filmed

Oh, Canada! The same mountain range that runs through Colorado (that's the Rockies to you) goes all the way up into Canada, so unless you've studied every peak and valley, chances are you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Per The Cinemaholic, "Cold Pursuit" was actually shot on the Canadian side of the fence. The town of Fernie, British Columbia filled in for Kehoe, Colorado, and the northern Rocky Mountain backdrop subbed in just fine. The film was also shot in other areas of Canada, like Vancouver and Alberta. The important thing here is that it (mostly) remained authentically North American — except for the few scenes that were shot in Norway.

The movie made a decent $76 million worldwide off of a $60 million budget (per Box Office Mojo), so it fell somewhere in the middle of the Liam Neeson sub-genre range. "Cold Pursuit" also currently holds a 68% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is actually higher than any of the "Taken" movies (the best being the original "Taken" at 59%), so all in all this was one of his more successful endeavors. Maybe the dark humor helped, as by 2019, this formula was more than ready for a little wink.

But in case you ever want to pursue Kehoe, Colorado, just remember — it's a little further north than you may have been led to believe. Not that it matters, because Neeson will find you wherever you go if you cross him.
