"However, the house's interiors couldn't accommodate director Noah Baumbach's camera shots, so and had to be rebuilt on stage at Shepperton Studios in Surrey, England, along with several other sets. Fun fact for hotel geeks: Adam Sandler stayed at Claridge's in London throughout filming in England. During that time, Londoners spotted him playing basketball in the leafy neighbourhood of Clapham, watching Chelsea FC play football on their home turf, and exploring the streets of Mayfair in his signature cold-weather combo of puffer jacket and shorts."
"Baumbach and Tildesley "stumbled across an Italian train called Arlecchino, a four-car, high-speed train designed by Gio Ponti in 1960 for the Rome Summer Olympics." Tildesley adds, "outside the windows we had a digital projection, so that you got the visual of the landscape going by.""
Multiple interior locations were rebuilt on stage at Shepperton Studios because the original house interiors could not accommodate the required camera shots. Adam Sandler stayed at Claridge's while filming in London and was seen around Clapham, Stamford Bridge, and Mayfair. Milano Centrale served as the busy station backdrop, with a mix of genuine vintage carriages and soundstage scenes used on board. The production used an Italian Arlecchino train designed by Gio Ponti and applied digital projections outside carriage windows to simulate passing landscapes. A rural cemetery set was custom-built from polystyrene and plaster for an action sequence. The final act moves to Pienza, Tuscany.
