The Smurfs Movie Perhaps???

There was a shed load of filming equipment in Times Square this morning and lots of film crew types getting in the way of harried commuters. I wonder what's going on?

The last film set I came upon was about a month ago for Bradley Cooper's The Dark Fields. Of course I couldn't stop to gawp as I was in a rush to meet Megan at Delancey and Clinton and I was running late thanks to the ineptitude of the MTA. We had plans to walk across the Williamsburg Bridge for brunch at Egg and coffee at BlueBottle and I'd had one of those mornings where nothing seemed to be going right, so I wasn't best pleased to find a film crew blocking my route at Spring and Lafayette and sadly I missed out on the loveliness that is Bradley in the flesh, although to be honest the mood I was in that morning I would have gnashed my teeth at him.

You can get an idea of what's currently filming around NYC via The Mayor's Office of Film, Theater and Broadcasting.
