Where Was “Another Simple Favor” Filmed? All About the Picturesque Italian Locations (That You Can Visit IRL!)
May 3, 2025
Another Simple Favor, the highly anticipated sequel to Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick’s 2018 film A Simple Favor, poses another murder mystery to be solved. This time, however, the twists and turns don’t take place in suburbia, but in the picturesque south of Italy.
Lively and Kendrick reprised their roles of Emily Nelson, a conniving fashion PR executive, and Stephanie Smothers, a single mother with a cooking and crafting vlog, respectively, in the follow-up to the box office hit that is now streaming on Prime Video.
The shocking conclusion of A Simple Favor, which takes place in the fictional suburban town of Warfield, Conn., ends with Emily being sentenced to 20 years in prison for two separate murders and Stephanie being the one to help send her there. But when Another Simple Favor picks up five years later, Emily has been let out of jail early — and she has one more favor to ask of her former best friend Stephanie, who now works as a private investigator: To be the maid of honor in her upcoming wedding in Capri. What follows, though, is anything but wedded bliss on the Italian coast.
While Feig primarily shot the first film in Toronto to bring the idyllic town of Warfield to life, the director knew that the sequel needed to be set — and filmed — on the actual island of Capri, Italy. The director and his wife have been making annual trips to the Italian island for decades.
