And now, Joshua Jackson (probably!) on a payphone on Avenue A

As the flyer shows, crews for a film called "Lay the Favorite" are currently shooting some scenes on Avenue A and East Fifth and East Sixth Streets...


The movie features Bruce Willis, Vince Vaughn, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Joshua Jackson.

EV Grieve reader Faces caught a scene earlier on Avenue A... possibly Joshua Jackson on the payphone...


We walked by this morning and snapped a quick, random photo at Fifth Street of the trucks. And we didn't notice that someone was, uh, asleep on the sidewalk ... An extra? Vince Vaughn?


And no reported sightings of Bruce Willis... who would be making his triumphant return to the East Village after filming "Die Hard III: Dying Harder than the Last Time We Died Hard" in 1994 (for its 1995 release) ...

ahhh, Leshko's before it was the new-Leshko's before it was Yuca! I do like my Yuca Sangria at the sidewalk window. Glad they didn't put the IHOP on this corner.

You can also see Odessa Restaurant and Alphabets in that scene... I love how the kid has a tough Bronx accent.
