Strike Back: Vengeance

Strike Back: Vengeance is a ten-part third series of Strike Back commissioned by Sky and Cinemax. 


Filming began in South Africa in January 2012. The first block of two episodes were originally set to be shot primarily in the neighbouring country of Mozambique. However one week beforehand, there was a freedom fighter rally that took place in the country, and the production staff had to rethink their strategy as they felt that it would be unsafe to film action sequences while civilians were using live weapons. However, two days were spent filming some interior scenes in Mozambique, but the cast were not allowed to carry a weapon. The rest of the block resumed filming in Cape Town, and the rest of the series was largely shot in the city and the Western Cape. Production made use of local civilians to play crowds in populated area
