There are several "no food or drinks" signs on "The Zookeeper" set at the park's
elaborate mini-zoo location near the Giraffe Entrance of the Franklin Park Zoo
located at 1 Franklin Park Rd.
Word is that production crews have shipped in a few animals to the set to coincide
with the creature cast voiced by celebrities including Adam Sandler, Cher, Jon
Favreau, Sylvester Stallone and Judd Apatow.
The five will voice animals at the zoo where keeper James longs for his female love
interest played by Dawson. Sandler will be the voice of a capuchin monkey while
Cher is slotted to be a giraffe. Favreau has been cast as a bear, Stallone as a lion
and Apatow as an elephant.
There's a giant stone wall on the off-limits set, with telescopes and street lamps,
which resembles the facade of a mini zoo within the zoo. As previously reported, the
structures are built for filming purposes only.
In "The Zookeeper," Kevin James plays a zoo caretaker who consults with the
animals in an attempt to learn their methods of dating and mating to help him win
back the woman of his dreams. Rosario Dawson has been cast as Kate, the smart
zoo veterinarian who works alongside James' character Griffin. Leslie Bibb plays
Stephanie, the ex who broke Griffin's heart.
Also, Dorchester homeboy Donnie Wahlberg has joined the cast of the
made-in-Boston flick.
