Vancouver was treated to a bit of eye candy this week.

The arrival of three heartthrob­s sent female fans around the world shrieking into the Twittersph­ere.

First came the appearance of Channing Tatum, his beefy arms wrapped protective­ly around his newborn daughter Everly, Sunday at YVR.

He left town the next day after dropping wife Jenna Dewan- Tatum ( about to start work on TV series The Witches of East End) and their puppy Meeka at their new rental home, but not before posing for countless photos with giddy girls.

Another actor who’s gaining attention from the local female population is Teen Wolf star Colton Haynes, who is here filming TV series Arrow. Upon arriving on Tuesday, the 24- year- old tweeted: “Day 1 in my Vancouver home, in shock that i live here, incredible. All i needs a few plants/ picture frames! And someone to make me food ...”

Perhaps that someone is Melissa Marshall, who posed for a snap with the actor at Starbucks on Tuesday?

Females from Down Under will be familiar with heartthrob No. 3, Luke Mitchell, who turned heads on Aussie TV series Home and Away. The blond babe flew from Sydney to Vancouver Wednesday to begin filming Season 2 of The Tomorrow People.

Filming of Tim Burton’s Big Eyes — starring Amy Adams, Oscar- winning actor Christoph Waltz, and Krysten Ritter — was reportedly taking place at the New Westminste­r police station on Thursday.

Work also continues on the untitled Eadweard Muybridge project starring Michael Eklund, and horror/ scifi flick The Visitors, featuring Freddie Stroma, who played Cormac McLaggen in the Harry Potter series.

A number of TV movies are also underway.

Hit TV series Once Upon A Time began filming this week in studio.

Cameras are also rolling on TV pilot Cedar Cove, starring Andie MacDowell and Dylan Neal.

Look out for the Supernatur­al crew and its devoted fan base on the streets in the coming weeks.

The next JJ Abrams series, Almost Human, begins filming July 16.

And how could we forget Tom Arnold, who’s here filming Psych?

He tweeted Monday: “How lame am I now that my new favorite thing is going to a grocery store the night before I start working in a new city? # LAME”

Lots more eye candy to arrive soon. We promise.
