Cambridge homeboy Ben Affleck and Kevin Costner are slotted to shoot scenes from 5 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, May 4 until Wednesday, May 6 at the under-construction Hodgdon House located at 174 Highland Street in the Fort Hill section of Roxbury.With initial scenes shot on Monday, April 13 and Tuesday, April 14, crews are returning to film Affleck working construction on a triple-decker Victorian in desperate need of repair. If you compare the before photo of the Hodgdon House here to the pics I shot today here, the transformation is already dramatic.

"The Company Men" follows a year in the life of three men trying to survive a round of corporate downsizing. Affleck plays a corporate bigwig whose six-figure salary is suddenly cut after he gets a pink slip. Costner, a blue-collar construction worker, offers Affleck a job installing drywall.
As previously reported in Loaded Gun, there was filming in the Boston Common and the Financial District on Wednesday, April 22 and in the South End at a three-story brownstone located at 5 Union Park on Friday, April 17. On Thursday, April 16, Tommy Lee Jones was spotted on the 17th floor of Fish and Richardson at One Marina Park Drive in South Boston and moved to the shoot located at 78 Waltham St. also in the South End.
