So many of your favorite TV shows and movies are set in NYC . But guess which ones were actually shot in Bulgaria?
NYC, aka Bulgaria
The Nu Boyana Film Studios is one of the premiere production locations for filmmakers for both European filmmakers, and Americans willing to take a long trip to save some money. One drawback: buildings can't be taller than 20 meters, so directors need to computer animate skyscrapers. Or, shoot the real thing in Manhattan.
It is used in large part by Millennium Films. The recent Oscar-nominated film Kon-Tiki shot its New York exteriors here. Eliza Graves, starring Ben Kingsley, Michael Caine, Kate Beckinsale and Jim Sturgess, is in production here, too.

Can the NYPD arrest you in Central Europe?
Looks like the cast of Newsies might bust out at any time.
