    Crime 101: Location Manager Robert Foulkes on choosing the highs and the lows of Los Angeles for the Chris Hemsworth heist movie

    In this edition of the On Location podcast we meet veteran Location Manager, LA-based Robert Foulkes, who tells us how some of Crime 101s locations were chosen. In the movie, Mike Davis (Chris Hemsworth) is a master jewel thief who specialises in meticulously targeted robberies, which take place along the 101 freeway in Los Angeles. Ahead of what could be his biggest-ever heist, he teams up with disillusioned insurance broker Sharon (Halle Berry). Detective Lou Lubesnick (Mark Ruffalo) has spotted a connection to the 101 robberies and is determined to prevent the big one from happening.   The film’s star-studded cast also includes Barry Keoghan as the psychotic biker Ormon; and Nick Nolte as the underworld fence, Money.  Crime 101 is based on the 2020 Don Winslow novella of the same name, adapted by director Bart Layton – who chose both the super-wealthy areas of Los Angeles, as well as the gritty side of the city, as backdrops to the story – from Echo Park and West Hollywood, to the coastal areas of Venicee and Santa Monica.  Watch this tour of Los Angeles with Robert Foulkes here And see the film’s trailer here Crime 101 is a production from Amazon MGM Studios, Raw, Working Title Films and The Story Factory, directed by Bart Layton. Hemsworth produces alongside Ben Grayson; who he worked with on 2025’s Chris Hemsworth: a Road Trip to remember.

    Passport Properties: in search of luxury, exotic and historic real estate

    In this edition of the On Location podcast, Julian Newby meets luxury real-estate broker Billy Nash, host of the new global travelogue series Passport Properties. Billy is joined on the podcast by the series’ executive producer Leland Sandburg and together they talk about their cinematic journey through some of the world’s most extraordinary homes.  But this is not just about wealth and luxury; the series also focuses on the culture, the history and people that shape the communities they visit. Nash’s storytelling and eye for design have earned him comparisons with Anthony Bourdain — using real estate, instead of food, as the lens to understand the world. Passport Properties is set to be delivered in January 2026 with global distribution secured with Blue Ant Studios. And meanwhile the series was introduced to international buyers at this year's MIPCOM, the annual international content market that takes place in October, in the city of Cannes on the French Riviera.
