If you had asked me a year ago, I would never have dreamed that I would be part of a press entourage that got to go behind the scenes of the Flicka 3 Movie! Flicka: Country Pride is a Twentieth Century Fox Movie. The movie was filmed in an absolutely gorgeous location. It was so much fun to meet the Flicka 3 cast and crew, watch them work, and get to interview them. I will share all the details with you below!
Where was Flicka 3 filmed?
Well, I am glad you asked! Flicka 3 was filmed in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. It is about four hours from Vancouver by car. It is going to be a gorgeous family film to watch because Kelowna is just so beautiful. The Flicka 3 cast were all so passionate and committed to their roles so I know it will be emotionally captivating as well. I enjoyed every minute of the behind the scenes of press trip. I was able to see the filming of Flicka 3 and to interview several of the cast members. The wide open spaces are just gorgeous and the greens and yellows of the landscape are captivating.
Kelowna is where Flicka Country Pride was filmed so that is where I flew for my behind the scenes peek at the movie filming. When I arrived in Kelowna, BC, Canada, I was awed at the beautiful view at the Manteo Resort where I stayed.
When we arrived at the farm where they were filming the Flicka 3 movie, I was equally blown away. The huge sweeping views, the amazing colors, and vibrancy of the setting were really special.
About Flicka 3, Country Pride
Flicka was a 2006 movie adapted from the 1941 children’s novel My Friend Flicka by Mary O’Hara. Following the success of Flicka, Flicka 2 showed how this special horse can change lives and introduced Toby (played by country singer Clint Black.)
Flicka 3 is being directed by Michael Damian. After talking with the cast of Flicka 3, I can tell you that it will tell the story of one girl (played by Kacey Rohl) and how her new friendship with Flicka helps her find herself again. As a budding equestrian rider, Kelly quickly bonds with Flicka and hopes to break her for an upcoming competition. Toby (again played by Clint Black) also helps save the day by stopping a rival trainer from stealing the stable owner’s clients. Toby and Flicka help bring Kelly and her mother Lindy back together again.
The Flicka Country Pride movie is an inspiring coming of age story about an equestrian rider based on a children’s novel by Mary O’Hara.

“Flicka has a way of bringing a family together with her big heart and firey spirit… Through Flicka’s strength, Kelly is able to find strength for herself.” –Janeen Damian

“What I love most about Toby is that he is a cowboy and I’m a cowboy at heart… he’s light hearted and keeps his head above the drama.” Clint Black
I have to say that it so was much fun getting to meet Clint Black. He was just so charismatic and funny! Kacey Rohl was full of energy and spunk! Lisa Hartman Black was super friendly and seemed oozing with calm wisdom. They were all very passionate about their roles. It was great getting to hear them talk about ways they prepared and the feelings of their characters.
Underlying messages in the film, according to Clint Black:
“You can overcome your own shortcomings. There is something more to people than just what you think you see. Can do attitude.”
I personally can’t wait to see Flicka 3 with my family when it comes out!
