The Unbreakable Boy(also known as Jeden na milion) is an American inspirational family drama film directed and written by Jon Gunn for Lionsgate and Kingdom Store Company productions. DC’s Shazam star Zachary Levi is starring in the movie as the father of child who is suffering with a rare brittle bone disease and autism, the film is based on the book titled The Unbreakable Boy: A Father’s Fear, a Son’s Courage, and a Story of Unconditional Love by Scott LeRette which is itself inspired from a true story like Lifetime’s Cruel Instructions.
Where was The Unbreakable Boy filmed?
The Unbreakable Boy was filmed inside Oklahoma during fall 2020. The principal filming began on 26 Nov 2020 and wrapped up on 18 Dec 2020 over the course of 23 days. Filming took place in various parts of the state featuring Norman, Midwest City, Okarche, Guthrie, El Reno and Bethany with most of the filming took place within Oklahoma city. The school featured in the film is most likely South Lake Elementary School of OKC.
This filming project created more than 150 local jobs for the local residents and another fun fact is that Kingdom Story began the production of American Underdog right after the shooting of Unbreakable Boy finished. However, the shooting for “American Underdog” began in Jan 25, 2021. Together, these films created more than 860 jobs and lead to the direct spending of $20 Million in the state, according to The Oklahoman. The medic and health crew played a characteristic role while the shooting was ongoing.
Drew Powell enjoyed final days of filming by singing late night 2 AM with Meghann Fahy. He quoted the Instagram post as he can never forget the beautiful experience. A group with a truly Unbreakable spirit. One of the additional bonuses was getting to spend our downtime as a cast hanging out, he added. Moreover, he dedicated the song to the hard work of fellow crew members and other supporting staff.
