KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) — A new show coming to ABC could mean more career and tourism development, according to Visit Knoxville.
The show “9-1-1: Nashville” is set to film an episode in Knoxville this fall, becoming the largest production to come to our area. While the Visit Knoxville Film Office said Knoxville is already on the map for film production, this big of a project coming to Knoxville could mean much more for the future.
“Since 2014, we’ve had probably 20 or so feature films come through, the Burt Reynolds film back in the day, but this would be probably the largest,” said Curt Willis, Senior Director of the Film Office.
