- Well, we’ve known this day was coming for some time — One of the biggest days for extras on the Jersey Girl set and also one of the most public locations for the film wrapped shooting yesterday — Philadelphia’s Hard Rock Cafe, which we’ve eaten many a cheeseburger at, doubled for the New York location as scenes were filmed there this week.
Naturally, we’ve got a bunch of reports from the set, from press and fans alike. We’ll run those reports here for ya, and they’ll also be archived over at Exit 37 along with our recent set visit and others.
First, let’s get the Philly Inquirer blurb in:
Jersey Girl’s cameras will end a three-day shoot today at Center City’s Hard Rock Cafe, which is doubling for the Hard Rock Cafe in New York. (Informed sources say producers are saving about 15 percent off Manhattan production prices this way.) Meanwhile, Jason Biggs, who plays Arthur, a coworker of Ben Affleck’s character’s, bellied up to the upstairs bar Monday night at Old City’s Cuba Libre for Red Stripes and cigarettes with a buddy. Biggs, who was pretty much left alone, is shuttling between Philadelphia and Broadway, where he costars with Kathleen Turner in The Graduate. In January, he’s to start shooting American Pie 3.
Brian Garber wasn’t an extra, but still has a story to tell regarding what he saw when he found the set. And finally, Bobby Miller reports his experiences as an extra at his Rigged Productions website.
