Cragside, Northumberland's iconic National Trust property, made a dramatic appearance in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018). The estate's Victorian architecture and expansive grounds served as the backdrop for Lockwood Manor, the mansion of character Benjamin Lockwood. Fans can now visit Cragside and experience the cinematic setting firsthand.
Looking ahead, Northumberland is set to feature prominently in the highly anticipated sequel, 28 Years Later (2025), releasing on June 20, 2025. Directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland, the film continues the post-apocalyptic saga, with scenes filmed across the region, including Holy Island, Kielder Forest and Rothbury. The star-studded cast includes Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Ralph Fiennes.
