Development and production
In December 2011, Deadline.com reported that Netflix and Gaumont International Television were finalizing a deal for a 13-episode series order for Hemlock Grove. The project was officially announced in March 2012. Eli Roth serves as an executive producer and will direct the pilot and last two episodes of the season. Deran Sarafian, who signed on in mid-March as an executive producer/series director, is expected to direct four episodes.
After McGreevy pushed for the series to be filmed in the Pittsburgh area, production was expected to start in early June 2012 and last until November. In mid May, Gaumont International Television pulled out of Pennsylvania in favor of production in Toronto. The move came about after Gaumont management had a misunderstanding on how the Pennsylvania Film Tax Credit program works. Filming began on July 13, 2012 in Port Perry, Ontario; a small town an hour north of Toronto that has been transformed to look like the American town of Hemlock Grove.
The budget for the first season of Hemlock Grove is reportedly about $45 million.
Current filming is taking place in Toronto at St Clair and Avenue Rd at the Deer Park United Church.
Casting
In March, Netflix announced that Famke Janssen and Bill Skarsgard would star in the series, Janssen as Olivia Godfrey and Skarsgård as her son, Roman Godfrey. In early April 2012, it was revealed that Peter Rumancek would be portrayed by Landon Liboiron. On April 4, Penelope Mitchell was cast as Roman's cousin, Letha Godfrey. Freya Tingley was cast as Christina Wendall on April 10. On April 12, Dougray Scott was announced as Dr. Norman Godfrey, Olivia's brother-in-law and Letha's father.. On July 2, Lili Taylor was cast as Peter Rumancek's mother, and Kandyse McClure was cast as Dr. Chausser. Aaron Douglas was cast as Sheriff Sworn on July 8. In late July 2012, Tiio Horn joined the cast as Destina Rumaneck.
