Tracker TV Show Moves to L.A. for Record Tax Break
4 May
Summary
- Tracker is relocating from Vancouver to Los Angeles for production.
- The show secured a record-breaking $48 million California tax credit.
- This move is expected to create jobs and boost local businesses.
The popular television series "Tracker," starring Justin Hartley, is relocating its production from Vancouver to Los Angeles. This significant move is bolstered by the largest California tax credit ever awarded to a series, totaling $48 million. The production studio, 20th Television, is actively securing facilities in the Los Angeles area, with filming for the fourth season scheduled to commence in late June.
The decision to move to California was recently finalized but had been developing, evidenced by the state's TV tax credit program. The substantial $48 million credit surpasses previous incentives, including those for Amazon's "Fallout" and another 20th Television series. This incentive is designed to attract and retain large-scale productions, thereby generating jobs for L.A.-based crews and stimulating local businesses.
"Tracker," which follows a lone-wolf survivalist tracking down individuals for reward money, is known for its on-location shooting in wilderness settings. The move to California offers opportunities to explore diverse new locales. Executive producer Elwood Reid expressed gratitude to the Vancouver crew while highlighting the excitement of filming in Los Angeles, made possible by the tax incentives.
As of May 4, 2026, "Tracker" remains one of the most-watched broadcast series, ranking second only to "Marshals" with 16.4 million multiplatform viewers. The series, based on Jeffery Deaver's novel "The Never Game," is slated to return for its fourth season in the fall.
