No PUBLIC ENEMIES shooting in Columbus or Beaver Dam, Wisconsin until next week
The much-awaited return of Johnny Depp to Columbus, Wisconsin for the filming of Michael Mann’s PUBLIC ENEMIES has been postponed for another week; scenes with Dillinger scheduled to be shot this week in Columbus and Beaver Dam, Wisconsin have been delayed until Monday, May 12th and Tuesday, May 13th. “We’re not shooting in Columbus this week,” location scout Adam Boor told the press; filming is now tentatively scheduled for a home in Columbus on Monday. On Tuesday morning, the cast and crew will head to Beaver Dam to film scenes at The Rogers, with a return to Columbus on Tuesday afternoon to shoot scenes on James Street.
PUBLIC ENEMIES filmed at the capitol in Madison, Wisconsin on Monday; these were scenes focusing on the FBI, with a newly-shorn Billy Crudup playing J. Edgar Hoover and Christian Bale as agent Melvin Purvis. You can see a few pictures from that shoot on the Pit forum. The Zone thanks Emma for the update on the Columbus filming and Gilbert’s Girl for the Madison pictures. –Part-Time Poet
