We got a few more emails from people who were near the bridge today and also didn’t see any evidence of filming. Thanks to everyone who checked it out and let us know! We also received pics and details from Princeton where they were setting up for this week’s Transformers 2 shoot (more evidence nothing was going to happen at the Brooklyn Bridge). We will be posting the pics tonight, check back!

Thanks Justin
I also found this on philly.com:
Gone Hollywood. As mayor, Michael Nutter is expected to work behind the scenes. How about as a TV director, too? Earlier this month, he was invited behind the camera as the FX comedy It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia shot a scene in which Charlie (Charlie Day) filches coins from Swann Fountain on Logan Circle. Director Fred Savage instructed Nutter on key phrases.

Center City actress Sylvia Kauders is the kind of gal who does kiss and tell. Last week, after they’d shot a scene in a South Philly deli for Transformers 2, Shia LaBeouf gave her a kiss – “because I am talented and rich,” says Kauders, who ranks among Philly’s more seasoned actors.

Transformers 2 cameras and crew have been all over (Fairmount Park, University of Pennsylvania) and today are due inside Eastern State Penitentiary, while Rittenhouse Square will double as Paris later this week. Saturday is the scheduled Philly wrap; next stop: Princeton.

My girlfriend and I walked the bride from 12 midnight to 1am and saw no evidence of Transformers being filmed there. We did see a set very close to the bridge, however, which was The Good Heart starring Paul Dano and Brian Cox. They wrapped around 2am, and we didn’t see any of the actors, although the trailers were marked with both character names (Lucas and Jacques) for the two above-mentioned actors. Hopefully some info will come along on Transformers. Also, a crew person on the set of The Good Heart told us they’ll be filming that movie under the bridge next week.
