The city of Toronto has added a start date for Life to their upcoming production list.
The movie will mark a return to Toronto for Robert Pattison, who has also filmed Cosmopolis and Map to the Stars in the city in recent years.
Directed by Anton Corbijn, Life is based on the true story of the friendship that developed between actor James Dean, played by Dane DeHaan, and photojournalist Dennis Stock (Pattinson) as they traveled across America.
According to the film office, filming is scheduled to take place in Toronto from February 18 to March 27.

Yes! I’m so excited. I can’t believe Rob is shooting his 3rd movie in Toronto. Looking for him in the winter weather will suck…..a lot!

Is Rob in Toronto now? Anyone? Hello?
the movie isn’t slated to stat until the 18th
Hi Christine!
Thanks for responding. I’ll try to be more patient.
Well now Life is at a film festival and its listed as needing financing and the link you posted no longer works and its not even on your calendar as filming in Toronto
Was this news out of Berlin, I can’t find anything, movies fall through all the time so its possible, I hadn’t heard that, I’ll keep trying to find some info on it…
Its still on the Toronto list for the 18th: https://www1.toronto.ca/static_files/economic_development_and_culture/docs/currently_filming.pdf
I haven’t added it to my database because it hasn’t started yet.
I found a few articles that the movie is being financed by a company in Australia.
One of the RP fan sites also has something about him doing fittings in Toronto so it looks to me like its still a go.
Can you send me a link to what you saw? thanks
That fitting pic was released by the website it was posted on because there was no date and Rob pics in morroco filming his hair is shorter
It’s from screen Australia and Life is under the financing portion of films are the Berlin film festival it’s not even under the pre production portion https://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/getmedia/25044e21-3fcb-4b2a-89ca-e77d1cf39aca/AusatBerlin14.pdf
I think that it being in their Berlin booklet under “upcoming highlights” shows they are still intending on financing and producing the movie. And IMDb still lists Toronto, too. I have an email into the Toronto Film Office but like I said it is still on their list for pre-production.
I just checked the acting union in Toronto and they have the movie on their production list as well. I guess I’m not sure what else I can do…like I said I’ll let you know if the film office responds.
Oh. And on IMDb LA has been added as a filming location for Life
Thanks for the update Christine. There was a fanpic of both Rob and Dane on Saturday night in downtown Toronto.
The production list link no longer works because it was changed to a PDF file on the site. The info is still the same.
I would suggest that Life is still a go for a Toronto shoot!
Did I mention that I’m excited? I’m so, so, so excited!
He is already in Toronto, arrived last weekend, there has been a handful of spottings, and a couple photos.
