'Jesus Revolution' is a drama film directed by Jon Erwin and Brent McCorkle that follows Greg Laurie as he journeys to California's southside along with a group of other young people in search of truth in their own ways. Soon, Laurie meets Lonnie Frisbee and Pastor Chuck Smith, who welcome a sea of wandering young people into Smith's home.
The dramatic sequence beginning in the 1970s against the backdrop of some interesting locations makes the observer wonder where 'Jesus Revolution' took place.
Locations for the Jesus Revolution
The film 'Jesus Revolution' was shot in Alabama and California, particularly in Mobile County, Baldwin County, and Southern California. According to sources, the main photography for the drama film began in early March 2022 and finished in roughly six weeks or so in April of the same year.
Alabama's Mobile County
'Jesus Revolution' was shot in Mobile County, Alabama, the second most populated county. The production team reportedly set up a camp near the USS Alabama's Battleship Causeway, where the film is docked. Moreover, Mobile Bay can be seen in many exterior photographs.
Baldwin County, Alabama, is a county where the county has been located.
During the early days of production, the cast and crew members were spotted recording several crucial scenes at the Fairhope K-1 Center on South Church Street and North Beach Park, Fairhope Municipal Pier, and apparently County Road 13.
The Gulf Coast's similarities to Southern California and its beaches make the county a good filming location.
California's Southern California
The filming unit of 'Jesus Revolution' utilized several locations in Southern California, a geographic and cultural area that encompasses the southern portion of California, as the name suggests. The majority of beach scenes were shot near the town of Newport Beach in the 1970s.
Balboa Island is a nearby town on Orange County's Irvine that was used for the film of "Jesus Revolution." Other locations include Downtown Los Angeles, Downtown Riverside, Dry Town Water Park, Wet'n'Wild Palm Springs, and San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
