With a van blow-up scene involving fire slotted for Ben Affleck's "The Town" on Commercial Street across the Charlestown Bridge this weekend, crews with Tom Cruise's spy flick known as the untitled "Wichita" project plan to top the made-in-Boston action with an elaborate stunt involving a vehicle careening off of a bridge."They're doing a lot of construction in the center of Charlestown's Rutherford Avenue," says Rod T., a Loaded Gun Boston reader.
Filming is slotted for Saturday, Oct. 10 from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m, Sunday, Oct. 11 from 6 a.m to 1 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 17 from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.
According to a memo sent to Charlestown-area residents, crews plan to shut down Rutherford Avenue from Sullivan Square to Austin Street during filming. Also, the sidewalks around the site will be closed off to all foot traffic.
The filming crew is slotted to set up a production area in back of Rutherford Avenue next to the fence along Spice Court.
The untitled "Wichita" project follows Cruise as a secret agent who pops in and out of the life of a single woman played by Diaz.
Principal filming for the made-in-Boston spy flick "Wichita," starring Cruise, Diaz, Paul Dano, Maggie Grace and Marc Blucas, kicked off on Tuesday, Sept. 15 at the Worcester Regional Airport.
This week, crews filmed scenes throughout South Boston including the Boston Fire Museum located at 344 Congress St. Beginning Saturday, Sept. 19, Cruise and Diaz filmed at the Parisian brasserie Gaslight located at 560 Harrison Ave.
