The movie Dr. Strangelove was filmed mostly at Shepperton Studios in England, near London. Some aerial footage was also shot in places like Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada , plus other exterior flight-view locations.

Filming locations

  • Shepperton Studios, England — the main production base and where most of the film was shot.
  • Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada — used for aerial photography in the bomber-flight sequences.
  • Additional aerial footage was also associated with Québec, Iceland, the Arctic, and the Rocky Mountains, Colorado.

Why England

The production stayed in the U.K. largely for practical reasons, and sources note that the film was shot at Shepperton Studios outside London.

TL;DR: Mostly Shepperton Studios in England , with some aerial shots from Canada and other cold-region locations.
