Posted by The Power of the Dog was entirely filmed in New Zealand, although the movie is set in the open spaces of rural Montana in 1925. Most of the shoots on location took place in the plains and spectacular mountains in Central Otago on the South Island, a striking landscape widely used in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies. According to the New Zealand Film Commission, the shoot on the South Island (including the ranch, Beech, and Herndon in Montana) took 27 days, and 23 days in the studio in Auckland on the North Island. The story, based on the 1968 novel by Thomas Savage, revolves around the Burbank brothers, George and Phil, two wealthy ranchers who are as different as night and day. The film features outstanding cinematography and a great selection of stars including Benedict Cumberbatch as the alpha male Phil, Jesse Plemons as George, Kirsten Dunst as his new wife Rose Gordon, and Kodi Smit-McPhee as her bullied son, Peter Gordon. Welcome to the best guide to the filming locations of The Power of the Dog that you can find.  The Otago Daily Times reported that the Burbank Ranch and the Western-style barn were built in a remote area in the Maniototo region. The spot was located "not far from the Falls Dam and Hills Creek, just down the road from St Bathans and over the hill from Ranfurly". (You can open all the

The top of the Burbank's ranch house was added in post-production using CGI. Production Designer Grant Major created 15 location sets built on location from scratch, including the Red Mill Hotel in the small settlement of Beech, Montana. The eye-catching mountain with the dog-shaped shadow in the nearby hills of the ranch is the distinctive flat-topped Hawkdun Range (6066 ft - 1849m). The crew dismantled all the sets once filming at the property was done.

Most of the furniture was shipped to New Zealand from several prop houses in Los Angeles. The local New Zealand woods are much more bright and the design of the period interiors are quite different from the traditional ones in the American West. The scenic road with sharp boulders scattered around doesn't look much like Montana, as it recalls the distinctive Lord of the Rings landscapes. In Atlas of Wonders, we reckon that these scenes were recorded at Bonspiel Station near the Poolburn Reservoir, a spot that served as the LOTR Rohan's Westfold locations. The area also looks like the rocks at the Strath Taieri valley located in the same area near Dunedin where some scenes of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey were filmed.

This scene was filmed on Queenstown Hill road, with Cecil Peak as the backdrop. Queenstown Hill is located overlooking the city of Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu. However, both the lake and the city situated below were out of the shot, so in the movie, it seems that the couple is alone on an isolated landscape. Actors Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons, who are a real-life couple, also played husband and wife in the TV show Fargo.

Opened in 1906, this ornate Flemish-Renaissance style building is one of the South Island’s most prominent architectural landmarks. The scenes in the fictional town of Herndon, Montana, were filmed in Tyne and Harbour Streets at Oamaru's Victorian Precinct. This neighborhood in Oamaru's harbor has preserved many 19th-century buildings constructed in local white limestone. The Criterion Hotel, pictured on the right, doubled as the Emerton Hotel. This area was also featured as a street in the fictional Kingdom of Lavania in the Netflix 2022 movie The Royal Treatment. The scenes in the river were probably filmed at Manuherikia River in Central Otago. The New Zealand Film Commission also reported that the production was shot in the Lindis Valley area.

This desertic area, made by gold miners who shaped the terrain by blasting water at the hills to release the gold, seems truly out of the Wild West.

This historic community hall opened in 1900 was built by German-speaking settlers from a region in Bohemia that is now part of the Czech Republic.

Where is the dog from in the movie dog?Their names are Britta, Lana 5, and Zuza, and though they look similar to German Shepherds, they're actually Belgian Malinois, a breed well suited to police or military work.

What breed of dog is in the film dog?Channing Tatum's newest movie, "Dog," may induce swooning over the human-animal bond, but some experts worry it could lead to more abandoned Belgian Malinois, the dog breed featured in the movie.
Was the dog Lulu real?The real Lulu was a Pitbull Catahoula mix while the fictional Lulu is portrayed by a Belgian Shepherd. In the film, Channing's character Briggs and the dog take a long road trip loosely based on one the actor took with his dog while she was still alive. "Lulu was my little shadow. She was everything.
