Hugh Jackman is in my home town (at the courthouse to be exact) filming scenes for his new movie "Real Steel".  How kewl is that?!!  The crew will be moving to a small town just to our southeast (Leslie) to film some other scenes before they move out of Michigan.


I was busy mowing today so I did not make it up town, although I might try to wander up that way tomorrow!!!  For now, I am one tired ladybug and think I'll head for bed!








            




You are loved ~~ far more than you may ever know!

Oh, do try to get in on the festivities Katie. It doesn't happen often that movie stars show up in little towns like ours. It gets to be boring but it's fun for a little while.

Enjoy!

That is so exciting KT. I worked in the town when they were filming Sweet Home Alabama and Josh Lucas was supposedly at the dragstrip right up the road from our house.

How very exciting Katie! Putting up with the extra traffic and crowds might be inconvenient, but I would be so excited to be on star watch, especially with a hunk like Hugh Jackman in town. I'm guessing that you never spotted him though.


Hugs,

Our local constabulary were out in full force (Overtime paid for by the movie studio) and keeping things orderly! But even with that there were people lining the sidewalks around the courthouse in the town square! It was interesting to see as I drove past!!


I don't think that much (if any) filming was being done outside the building here in town. The Leslie Depot Diner
