Yesterday, The Frozen Ground, starring John Cusack, began filming in Anchorage, Alaska.

The movie tells the real-life story of serial killer Robert Hansen, aka the “Butcher Baker”, who, between 1980-1983, kidnapped and raped at least 21 women before flying them out to a remote Alaskan location, where he would release them to hunt and kill them.

On Monday, they started filming outside Paris Bakery on Muldoon Rd in Anchorage, which is playing the role of “Hansen’s Bakery,” the shop owned by Robert Hansen. From what we’ve heard, it sounds like the will be filming outside the bakery for a few days.

According to The News Tribune, yesterday’s scenes included a vintage brown Oldsmobile arriving and parking outside the bakery just before Cusack, who plays Hansen, greets a man carrying a loaf of bread out of the shop.

The movie also stars Vanessa Hudgens, Nicolas Cage, and 50 Cent.

I know for a fact that Cusack and his staff were leaving at 12:10 pm yesterday. I was onset Friday night/Saturday morning and that is what his staff (and producer) were talking about. If there is a dinner, then Cusack must be coming back. I doubt it though because reportedly he doesn’t like the cold weather and was anguish to get to warmer weather.
