Exploring Movies Shot on Gozo & Comino

For two small Mediterranean islands, Gozo and Comino have hosted an impressive variety of films across genres. Hollywood blockbusters like Troy (2004) and Clash of the Titans (1981) used their dramatic coastlines to bring ancient history to life, while films like the German adventure Wickie und die starken Männer (2009) and the Bollywood romance Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa (2010) showcased Gozo’s global appeal.

In recent years, Gozo has been the setting for more intimate films, such as Angelina Jolie’s By the Sea (2015), filmed at Mgarr Ix-Xini. Whether action, drama, or adventure, Gozo and Comino continue to draw international filmmakers.
