The Tomorrow War (2021)

This action-packed summer Blockbuster depicts soldiers from the future traveling to the present to enlist the likes of Chris Pratt's Iraq vet to stop aliens from destroying humanity in 30 years. Amid intense sequences of troops shooting at monstrous aliens, the action takes a breather at one of Jekyll Island's beaches, standing in for the Dominican Republic. As Pratt's character has a heart-to-heart with a future soldier played by Yvonne Strahovski, the expansive but soothing surf provides a welcome moment of calm.

Location: Shooting of the sequence began on Beachview Drive South and ended on the shore between the South Dunes Picnic Area and Glory Beach.

Trivia: The Tomorrow War was originally intended for theatrical release, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Paramount Pictures sold it to Amazon Prime for a reported $200 million.
