Fortune Feimster and Will Ferrell in 'The Hawk' on Netflix.Photo by Colleen E Hayes/NetflixThe Will Ferrell-led Netflix comedy The Hawk is set in the high-stakes world of competitive golf, where outrageous laughs are balanced by the emotional story of a fractured father-son relationship that only grows more complicated as they compete against one another. The 10-episode series was filmed at several iconic Southern California 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 breathtaking Resort at Pelican Hill.As Ferrell’s washed-up Lonnie “The Hawk” Hawkins battles to reclaim the championship that eluded him years earlier, his journey reaches its climax at Pelican Hill, where the series’ final two episodes were filmed. The resort also served as the backdrop for Netflix’s press junket ahead of the July 16 premiere, where Ferrell, Molly Shannon, Jimmy Tatro, Luke Wilson, and Fortune Feimster reflected on making the 10-episode comedy. In interviews, the cast shared that filming The Hawk was every bit as enjoyable as it looks, taking them to some of the most picturesque golf courses across Los Angeles and beyond.
