Did you know? Blockbuster films such as Ghostbusters and Paddington filmed scenes at the Natural History Museum

December 2024

Most recently the Natural History Museum welcomed Sir David Attenborough to the iconic South Kensington building to film in the famed Hintze Hall and their special Earth Sciences Library to capture the introduction to BBC’s Asia documentary – exploring the amazing wildlife and natural wonders of our planet’s largest continent.

While shows such as Ted Lasso and The Masked Singer also filmed scenes at the Museum, and even more uniquely Red Bull filmed a documentary after dark with the top female skateboarders in the world.

Film amongst majestic Romanesque architecture in Hintze Hall, glistening treasures, hidden corridors stacked with specimens, dinosaur skeletons and a giant globe in the mighty Earth Hall. The Natural History Museum brings spectacular settings to any film set.
