Quick answer: Morris County has quietly become one of Hollywood’s favorite backdrops. Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day, The Housemaid, A Complete Unknown, Happy Gilmore 2, Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere and Netflix’s The Night Agent all filmed scenes here. Below are 10 productions and the exact towns where cameras rolled.
You may have walked past a movie set without realizing it. Over the last two years, a run of big studio films and streaming hits has filmed in our towns, from a historic school campus in Morristown to Mendham and Kinnelon. Production trucks and casting calls for extras have become a familiar sight.
We built this list from Morris County Tourism’s official Morris County Films Guide and state film announcements, so every town listed is confirmed. Grab the popcorn and see how many you can spot.
1. Disclosure Day: Hanover, Mendham, Montville and Morris Township
Steven Spielberg’s science fiction mystery, starring Emily Blunt and Josh O’Connor, hit theaters on June 12, 2026. According to the New Jersey Economic Development Authority, the production spent about $34 million over 23 shooting days in the state and hired more than 1,800 crew members. Four of its ten New Jersey towns were in Morris County: Hanover Township, Mendham Township, Montville and Morris Township.
2. The Housemaid: Morristown
The twisty thriller based on Freida McFadden’s best selling novel, directed by Paul Feig and starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, filmed scenes at The Peck School and around Morristown in January 2025. The school’s stone Lindenwold mansion, pictured above, is one of the most striking buildings in the county.
3. A Complete Unknown: Florham Park and Kinnelon
James Mangold’s Bob Dylan biopic, with Timothée Chalamet as the young Dylan, used locations in Florham Park and Kinnelon to recreate early 1960s America. The film went on to earn eight Academy Award nominations.
4. Happy Gilmore 2: Florham Park
Adam Sandler brought his hockey player turned golfer back for Netflix in 2025, and the sequel was shot almost entirely in New Jersey. Netflix says the production used 45 locations across the state and hired more than 400 local crew members, and Florham Park made the cut.
5. Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere: Denville and Florham Park
It only makes sense that a movie about New Jersey’s own Bruce Springsteen would film here. The 2025 drama, with Jeremy Allen White as the Boss during the making of his Nebraska album, shot scenes in Denville and Florham Park.
6. Song Sung Blue: Denville and Florham Park
Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson star in this crowd pleaser about a real life husband and wife Neil Diamond tribute act. Like the Springsteen film, it found its backdrops in Denville and Florham Park.
7. The Night Agent, season 3: Morris Township
Netflix’s hit action thriller brought its third season to Morris Township, adding a binge worthy series to the county’s growing screen resume.
8. Echo Valley: Wharton and Rockaway Township
Julianne Moore and Sydney Sweeney star in this Apple TV+ thriller, about a horse trainer pulled into a dangerous secret. It filmed in Wharton and Rockaway Township, two towns better known for lakes and trails than red carpets.
9. The History of Sound: Morristown and Florham Park
This period drama starring Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor follows two young men recording folk songs across early 20th century America. Morristown and Florham Park were among its filming locations.
10. The American Revolution: Morristown
Few places tell the story of the Revolution like Morristown, where Washington’s army spent two winters. Ken Burns’ documentary series The American Revolution filmed in Morristown, putting our hometown history in front of a national audience.
