Cyber Cafe joins Kim's Video and Benny's Burritos in 1990s throwback for 'Caught Stealing'

A late-1990s-looking Avenue A and Sixth Street will be the epicenter of filming this week for the Darren Aronofsky-helmed crime thriller "Caught Stealing." 

Filming is expected to continue here tomorrow through Friday. 

Yesterday saw the arrival of the Cyber Cafe signage on A to go next to Kim's Video (RIP 2004).
... and the prop folks added more details to the resurrected Benny's Burritos (RIP 2014) on the corner...
The crew also continues to work on the Nenos Pizza set on the Sixth Street side at A (Amor Y Amargo). It's not quite our Nino's from Avenue A and St. Mark's Place.
Also spotted on Sixth Street for the shoot... a REVS COST tag... (we already noted the Obey Giant wheat pastes on Sixth).
The film stars Austin Butler, ZoĆ« Kravitz, Bad Bunny and, most recently, Action Bronson. 

The plot, based on Charlie Huston's novel, per IMDB
Burned-out ex-baseball player Hank Thompson (Butler) unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of 1990s New York City, forced to navigate a treacherous underworld he never imagined.
