Disney magic returns to Sardinia: Gallura becomes an enchanted setting between sea and red rocks.

Sardinia continues to prove itself a prime destination for major international film productions. Following the success of The Little Mermaid in 2023, Disney returns to the island for new filming, once again focusing on Gallura, an area renowned for its pristine landscapes and breathtaking natural scenery.

The choice is no coincidence: remote beaches, red cliffs, and hidden coves make this part of Sardinia one of the most evocative natural settings in the Mediterranean, harmoniously blending the charm of nature with the demands of modern cinematography.

Trinità d'Agultu and Li Cossi: Gallura becomes a film set

The new Disney project focuses on the area of ​​Trinità d'Agultu and Vignola , with the beaches between Isola Rossa and Costa Paradiso . Here, the red granite rocks plunge into the turquoise sea, creating a view that seems to have emerged from a CGI film, yet is perfectly real.

Li Cossi beach and the body of water in front of the town of Trinità d'Agultu were chosen as the main locations, where filming has already begun under the utmost discretion.

The production, entrusted to Wildside – known for series like The Young Pope and films like There's a Tomorrow Again – imposed access restrictions to ensure the safety of the crew and the scenic isolation necessary for filming, with areas temporarily closed to drones and curious visitors.

The charm of these locations is not only aesthetic: Trinità d'Agultu and its surroundings offer a timeless atmosphere, with stone villages, paths immersed in the Mediterranean scrub and hidden coves that make the area perfect for telling cinematic stories of all kinds.

Gallura , with its contrasts between Caribbean views and Mediterranean western cliffs, continues to capture the attention of the major Hollywood studios, representing an ideal combination of wild nature and perfect settings for the big screen.

Disney and the Magic of Sardinia: Hypotheses on the New Project

Despite the utmost secrecy, speculation about the new Disney production is rife. It could be a live-action remake of a classic like Moana , Hercules , or the second installment of Lilo & Stitch , all titles that lend themselves perfectly to the natural settings of Gallura.

But the possibility of connections with the Marvel universe, Lucasfilm or the world of Avatar cannot be ruled out, considering Disney's wide range of intellectual properties.

In the coming years, the American production company has several major titles planned, including two Avengers installments and a Spider-Man installment. Only time will tell what story will unfold among the red granite rocks of the Gallura coast, its crystal-clear waters, and secluded beaches, transforming Sardinia into an unparalleled natural setting.

The arrival of a production of this scale brings with it not only curiosity and enthusiasm on the part of residents, but also concrete benefits for the area .

Sardinia, often seen only as a summer destination, has thus confirmed its position as an ideal location for international cinema, offering high-quality tourism opportunities and global visibility. Filming also reinforces the island's image as the perfect place to tell extraordinary stories, combining nature, art, and cinematic magic.
