The Georgia Viaduct will be closed to film a car chase for a popular Netflix show called The Night Agent overnight on Tuesday (March 22). 

A resident notification letter from production company Pico Productions (BC) Ltd. states that filming will take place starting on Tuesday at 7 p.m. and continue through the night until 6 a.m. on Wednesday morning. The exact parameters of the film shoot will be the 1100 - 900 Station Street and the Georgia Viaduct. 

Filming activities will include a car chase scene of two vehicles "chasing" each other starting in front of the Pacific Central Train Station and then continuing through the 1000/900 block of Station Street and onto the 200 block of Prior Street. The chase will then continue up the wrong way of the eastbound Georgia Viaduct across Main Street and then the chase will end approximately 200 meters atop the Georgia Viaduct. 

The viaduct was also closed overnight on Monday to film scenes for the show.

The show is about a low-level FBI agent who "works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings until the night it does, propelling him into a conspiracy that leads all the way to the Oval Office," according to IMDb. American actor Gabriel Basso (The Kings of Summer, Hillbilly Elegy) plays the leading role.

On March 9, locals shared images of the Vancouver Art Gallery transformed to look like Washington D.C. for the Netflix show. 

One photo shows an FBI vehicle that reads "FBI Washington Field Office Evidence Response Team" on the side, while another shows police  on the "scene." A third photo also shows a picture vehicle that reads "Channel 2" on the side to make it look like it belongs to a local news local station.

A resident notification letter from the same production company was also spotted in George Wainborn Park that states that filming will take place in the park until March 23.

The film set is for a CBS pilot called Early Edition, according to Hollywood North Buzz.
