'What's Your Number?' film heading to Gloucester
Here comes the bride? Crews with the made-in-Massachusetts romantic comedy
"What's Your Number?" with Anna Faris and Chris Evans are filming a wedding scene at
the Good Harbor beach in Gloucester early next week, with filmmakers setting up shop
in the picturesque seaport town as early as this weekend.
It's a one-day shoot at Good Harbor and then crews plan to shoot an eight-day
wedding sequence at a private estate located at 33 Way Rd. in Cape Ann.
According to the Gloucester Times here, crews plan to use the Good Harbor parking lot
as a staging area before moving to the stately Back Shore residence. They're taking a
break on the weekend beginning Saturday, June 19, but returning on Monday, June 21
and Tuesday, June 22 to finish filming.
There are three wedding scenes, ranging from a blue-collar bash to a big-fat Italian
wedding to a young/corporate soiree, scheduled for the film and Faris' onscreen sister,
and homegrown talent, Ari Graynor is apparently the bride to be.
Since filming commenced on Monday, May 17, many of the shots for "What's Your
Number?" have had a recurring wedding theme.
On Thursday, May 20, crews rented out an empty storefront located on Clarendon
Street near the Cole Haan store located at 109 Newbury St. Set designers transformed
the space located at 236 Clarendon St. into a bridal boutique chock full of
fashion-forward wedding gowns.
On Wednesday, May 19, crews filmed a sequence at Winston Flowers located at 11
Florence St. in Chestnut Hill. On Tuesday, May 18, crews with "What's Your Number?"
filmed a cake-related bridal scene at 311 Summer Street in South Boston's Fort Point
Channel neighborhood.
'What's Your Number?' was filming near Public Garden in May
Crews with the locally shot romantic comedy "What's Your Number?" with Anna Faris
and Chris Evans set up shop on Wednesday, June 9 on the corner of Boylston and
Arlington streets near Boston's Public Garden and Bistro du Midi located at 272
Boylston St.
Production was in front of Boylston's posh shopping area, which includes Hermes,
Escada and St John Boutique.
Filming is slotted to continue on Thursday, June 10 from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. and
possibly until Friday, June 11 if Thursday's predicted rainstorm impedes production.
Holding for extras and catering was set up at Emmanuel Church located at 15 Newbury
St.
As previously reported in Loaded Gun Boston, the romantic comedy has been called a
"two-hour postcard" that will focus on some of our city's swankier locales.
The made-in-Massachusetts flick follows Faris' character Delilah who looks back at the
past 20 men she's dated in her life and wonders if one of them might be Mr. Right.
Other actors attached to the "What's Your Number?" project include Ryan Phillippe, Joel
McHale from "The Soup" and NBC's "Community," Andy Samberg from "Saturday Night
Live" and Zachary Quinto who stars as Spock in the 2009 "Star Trek" remake and, of
course, is "Sylar" from "Heroes."
