Okanagan to Miss Tracker Series Filming: Film Commissioner
The move follows a $48 million state tax credit and is expected to create jobs for 250 crew members, officials said.
On Monday, the hit CBS series Tracker, starring Justin Hartley, announced it will relocate production to Los Angeles for season 4, securing a record $48 million tax credit from the California Film Commission.
20th Television is currently securing local production facilities, with the incentive based on $129 million in qualified spending designed to boost employment for California crews and businesses impacted by reduced production activity.
Showrunner Elwood Reid noted the shift provides fresh creative opportunities, allowing the series to explore diverse locales spanning mountains, coastlines and desert—essential elements to the show's survivalist storytelling.
With 16.4 million viewers, Tracker remains a top broadcast performer; the $48 million incentive eclipses the $42 million awarded to Amazon's Fallout when it relocated to Los Angeles.
Filming for season 4 is slated to begin in late June, with the drama based on the novel The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver scheduled to return to CBS later this year.
