The Disney+ series beautifully captured the streets of Pakistan without actually shooting in Pakistan. The Marvel series showcased Pakistan’s metropolis in the fourth episode. The show beautifully captures the essence of Pakistan without any filter.
The episode was filmed in Bangkok, Thailand, as per the credits. The filming in Pakistan was difficult given the current political stance in the country. However, fans appreciated Marvel for not using filters that could have affected the essence of the scenes.
This is not the first time Marvel had filmed locations, as the franchise is known to shoot scenes that are more than just filters. The in-location shootings were seen in the previous Disney+ Marvel series Moon Knight in which the antagonist of the show, Ethan Hawke who played the role of Arthur Harrow shared about shooting in the desert, “One of the things that surprised me about the Marvel Universe is that it’s fun, acting in front of a lot of green screens. I come from theater training. I enjoyed all that and pretending something was there and that you were on top of a pyramid. And then, when you’re really in the desert, it’s so beautiful. I felt some kind of connection to the cinema history of the desert. The people in Jordan treated us so well that it elevated our collective imagination and broadened the scope of the show. I loved being there.”
Iman Vellani-led series was also filmed in New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia, and Atlanta’s Trilith Studios, where a majority of Marvel films are shot.

For sure, even though I can stream most things when they have the 'piss' filter I often download them from,other sources, so I can adjust the light back to normal using VLC filters
