According to Cinemaholic, filming likely occurred in and around Queenstown, which is partially home to New Zealand’s Southern Alps. Temperatures there can reach at least -4C (24.8F).

Vanderpumps’ Tom Sandoval is the most highly-anticipated celebrity due to his turbulent headlines of 2023.
On March 3, the reality TV community was shaken to its core when reports emerged that Sandoval had cheated on longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix with co-star Raquel Leviss aka Scandoval.
Ariana allegedly found out through an explicit video found on Tom’s phone and fans immediately declared themselves as Team Madix.
Two days later, Sandoval apologized for how his actions affected his business partners but did not mention Ariana. He eventually issued a public apology towards Madix on March 8.
Raquel broke her silence the same day, telling ET: “I want to apologize for my actions and my choices foremost to Ariana.”
Tom will be returning to the upcoming season of Vanderpump Rules and is hoping his Special Forces appearance will change the nation’s attitude.
“The whole country is pissed off at me,” he admitted in a teaser. “I was selfish, I made the wrong move.”
