Where was One Battle After Another shot? Revisiting key filming locations of Leonardo DiCaprio's upcoming action comedy

Paul Thomas Anderson is back with a flawed and desperate character in his next black comedy, One Battle After Another. This time, it will be Leonardo DiCaprio who is out there to find his daughter, and he is seeking any help he can. It's a star-studded outing filled with rebellion, featuring names like Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn, Regina Hall, and more.

Throughout the trailer, we saw places ranging from busy urban areas to open grounds, where rebels practiced at the firing range in their own savage way. A majority of these shots were filmed in California, with a location in Texas also being involved.

During the filming of One Battle After Another, an incident developed into a controversy. One of the officials wasn't really happy with this. Continue reading to discover which filming location was the site of the incident.

One Battle After Another filming locations

Humboldt County, California

Humboldt County was the primary location for most of the film's shooting. At the time when the filming began, Paul Thomas Anderson's film had a working title called BC Project. The places involved here include Murphy’s Market in Eureka and Carmela’s Mexican Restaurant in Arcata. Cutten and Trinidad are featured in the movie, but it is unclear where exactly the film was shot in these locations.

Sacramento, California

This is the exact location where a highly contentious event took place. It was for filming that an entire homeless encampment was removed, which caused Sacramento Homeless Union's President, Crystal Sanchez, to issue a statement. According to ABC 10, the official said:

"This permit should have never been given."

This is likely to be those firing range scenes where the rebels were going wild.
