Woods, Washington | MCU Location Scout

Mark, Abby, and Elektra in the woods.

I’ll bet you a thousand bucks you’re dead before Elektra is.

Elektra flees from McCabe’s house with Mark and Abby into the woods. There, they encounter a number of The Hand’s assassins who nearly kill Elektra before she is saved by The Chaste.

Trying to find a specific patch of woods in the Vancouver area is like trying to find an alley in New York City. With that said, I believe that the Capilano River Regional Park was a potential location for the chase through the woods. Its topography and tree growth look similar to what’s in the film, and it’s listed on IMDb as a filming location–not that you can trust that site for authenticity (it lists Griffith Park, Los Angeles, as a location for this film). Still, it’s a good start. If you know differently, email your thoughts.
