Bradley Cooper’s new film is shaking up a New York City neighborhood. Residents report constant disruptions and even say their pets are disturbed. According to Page Six, production noise and traffic have become a major nuisance.
Late-Night Filming Woes
Local residents complain about the late-night shooting schedule. They say loud generators run until 1 or 2 a.m. This noise makes it hard for them to sleep. In addition, production vehicles block roads and driveways for hours. Although filming mostly happens at night, some residents claim the disturbances continue into the day.
Production Impact and Local Frustration
Bradley Cooper not only stars in the film but also produces it and works as a camera operator. The production moved from Midtown Manhattan and Forest Hills to Douglaston, Queens. While Douglaston has hosted films before, locals find this crew unusually disruptive. One long-time resident compared it to the 2010 film Rabbit Hole, noting that this production is far more inconsiderate.
Hope for a Quick Wrap-Up
Residents now hope the filming ends soon so the neighborhood can return to normal. However, with the production ongoing, it is unclear how long the disruptions will last.
A Glimpse into the Film
Little is known about the film’s storyline. However, Bradley Cooper offered a brief insight into his character. He said, "I play a guy who’s an understudy actor and he’s understudying a play called The 13 Disciples, and he’s understudying all of them. So that’s what this is about."
This remark gives fans a small taste of the film while the production continues to affect the local community.
