Netflix's 'The Hawk' Premieres at the Iconic Pelican Hill Resort The Will Ferrell-led Netflix comedy The Hawk is set in the high-stakes world of competitive golf, where outrageous humor intertwines with the emotional journey of a fractured father-son relationship. The 10-episode series follows Lonnie “The Hawk” Hawkins, a washed-up golfer striving to reclaim his lost championship glory, as he navigates both the sport’s cutthroat competition and the complexities of his bond with his son. Filmed across Southern California’s most iconic golf courses, the show’s final two episodes were shot at the Resort at Pelican Hill, a location that serves as both the climactic backdrop for the series and a real-world luxury destination. The production team brought the story to life by capturing the essence of the sport’s grandeur and the personal stakes of the characters. Filming took place at several renowned courses, including Friendly Hills Country Club, Moorpark Country Club, Rolling Hills Country Club, Sand Canyon Country Club, Spanish Hills Golf Course, Woodland Hills Country Club, and the Resort at Pelican Hill. The latter, with its breathtaking ocean views and meticulously designed fairways, became the stage for the show’s epic conclusion. The resort also played host to Netflix’s press junket ahead of the July 16 premiere, where the cast—Will Ferrell, Molly Shannon, Jimmy Tatro, Luke Wilson, and Fortune Feimster—shared insights into the creative process and the joy of filming. The cast described the experience of making The Hawk as both entertaining and immersive, taking them to some of the most picturesque golf courses in Los Angeles and beyond. Pelican Hill, in particular, stood out for its blend of natural beauty and luxury.#will_ferrell #molly_shannon #jimmy_tatro #lukewilson #fortune_feimster
