Where Was Murder Mystery 2 Filmed?

Murder Mystery 2 began filming in early 2022, with principal photography starting in January 2022. Filming took place in Hawaii and Paris. In early February 2022, Jennifer posted behind-the-scenes footage while on set in Hawaii with Adam. “Back to work with my buddy. #MurderMystery2,” she captioned the Instagram post. Adam and Jen have been longtime friends since they starred in the 2011 movie Just Go With It.

The Morning Show star revealed that she and Adam had wrapped filming on April 8, 2022, in Paris. “Merciiii Paris. That’s a wrap. #MurderMystery2,” she wrote on Instagram. Her behind-the-scenes video featured sweet photos with Adam, the streets of Paris, and all the fun things happening in between Murder Mystery 2 takes.

When the cast was filming in Paris, the war in Ukraine was going on. Jennifer revealed how she felt about filming the sequel with a war so close by. “It was three months away from home. And that was challenging, only because I hadn’t been away from my dogs since the [beginning of the] pandemic,” Jennifer told PEOPLE. “Also, Ukraine was a stone’s throw away.”

Jennifer added that she felt “so useless” making a comedy while the war was happening. “I reminded myself that this is what people need. People want to laugh. People need comedies. People like to not think for a minute,” she said.
