A new season of Reacher has begun. The third installment of the series has been well received by critics, from whom it has 100% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. This impressive score promises a solid portion of the books' hero's story on screen.

Is Abbottsville, Maine real?

Reacher season 3 is set in Abbottsville, Maine. Searching for such a town, you may not find any information about it for a quite simple reason – Abbotsville, Maine is fictional town. It was invented for Reacher's purposes, so looking for it on a map is pointless. But it is certainly modeled on other similar towns in Maine, although the series was not filmed there.

And where did the shooting for Reacher season 3 take place? We found out about some of the locations thanks to reports from fans who came across the film crew in 2024. Some of the scenes for the new episodes were shot in Toronto, Canada, including a police chase. Millbrook, Canada, was also used as a small fictional American town Abbottsville. Locations from Reacher can also be found in St. John's, Canada; it's a city of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Shooting for the episodes took place in front of the Blue on Water hotel, among other locations. Residents mentioned roadblocks on Water Street due to the presence of the crew.

According to reports, the crew stayed longer in Newfoundland and Labrador, shooting was also to take place near Pouch Cove on Stiles Cove Path, among other places.

As you can see, Reacher's crew traveled across Canada to create Abbottsville, Maine, a town in the series located in the United States.
