Queens and West Village: While complete details remain hidden, some sequences were filmed here as well, showing that multiple boroughs were used to capture New York’s diversity.

Another interesting detail about the filming of Black Rabbit crime drama is that the team didn’t just stick to iconic tourist spots. They utilized real city settings to make the story look real and exciting to watch.

Since most of the action will take place on the streets, many spots were used for filming. The production team also used urban spaces, nightclubs, street corners and more to capture the intensity of the show.
