Where is Greenleaf Filmed?

Name one good family drama without scandals or secrets. We bet you wouldn’t have been able to come up with anything since that is the main attraction of the genre: scandalous secrets and secretive scandals. OWN’s ‘Greenleaf’ is a family drama series that promises both of those things, in a truly grand fashion thanks to the upper-class family that the show focuses on.

The series revolves around the titular family which is headed by James Greenleaf, who is a Bishop. His wife, Mae Greenleaf is the family’s matriarch. Apart from that, another integral member of the family is Grace Greenleaf, the couple’s estranged daughter who is depicted to have returned home after a gap of two decades. She returns home after her sister, Faith mysteriously dies. The series revolves around the personal conflicts of the family members as well as the larger conflicts surrounding their Memphis megachurch.

The role of Bishop James is essayed by Keith David while that of his reel wife is portrayed by Lynn Whitfield. Merle Dandridge plays the role of Grace Greenleaf.
