‘Perks’ Open Thread: Emma Watson will film ‘Perks Of Being A Wallflower’ in Pittsburgh

By

-

Recently we posted about the possibility of Emma Watson filming The Perks of Being a Wallflower in Pittsburgh, PA sometime soon, but we weren’t sure exactly when  filming would start, if it happened at all.

Update: Filming begins in May 2011! See links and comments below for all the details!

At the time, the author of the book on which the movie is based, Stephen Chbosky, had said in a visit to Slippery Rock University that filming would happen and that it would take place in Pittsburgh.

Then, a couple weeks ago, Bridge City Films seemed to confirm his announcement when they tweeted, “Just had a meeting with an agent who said Emma Watson is confirmed for Perks of Being a Wallflower. Starts shooting early 2011 in Pittsburgh.”

But, despite reports that filming will start as soon as this month, Ava Dellaira, Chbosky’s assistant, has said that the movie will definitely shoot in Pittsburgh, but there is no date start date for the film yet. “He says he wouldn’t consider any other location,” she said.

The hold up on an official start date may have to do with Emma’s prior commitments, including Harry Potter re-shoots that are scheduled to take place this week in the U.K.

We’ll keep you updated once a start date is officially announced and the cast arrives in town, it should be an exciting shoot!

The Perks of Being A Wallflower is about a shy teenager who writes letters to an anonymous person about his awkward adolescence.

If you hear any scoop about the movie, let us know in a comment below! And feel free to use this post as An Open Thread for information about filming locations or other details about the film once it starts shooting too! You can send us an email at olv@onlocationvacations.com with info too!

Also, check the links to other ‘Perks’ articles below for the latest on the film!

This is already the best thread for Perks of Being A Wallflower info, lets keep it going throughout the shoot!

  1. If Emma is gonna be in Pittsburgh, PLEASE let us know…we’re in Erie, PA and will definitely drive down there to see her. Just a glimpse of Emma Watson in person would be ultimate!!!

  2. Watson is not in “Perks.” The internet error is due to Chbosky giving voice to wishful thinking in a speech at Slippery Rock. Several others of his statements in that speech have also proven to be premature or inaccurate. Watson reads many scripts and “Perks” was one that she turned down. In any case, any “hold up” in a Watson project would not have to do with Potter re-shoots, but rather with Watson’s school year at Brown, which she has repeatedly said in recent interviews takes precedent over everything else. Her sophomore year doesn’t end until early summer 2011.

    • Um yes, she was filming at the Hollywood Theatre last night. I got her to sign my yearbook. If you go to the set, ask for Frank the bus driver. He has all the Insight

  3. As much as I’d like to see Emma in this movie, I am still doubtful, mainly for the points stated in the comment above mine. Either way, I am very excited for this movie. ‘Perks’ is my favorite book, and I am thrilled they are making a film. Part of me actually hopes Emma isn’t in this, honestly; I would hate for it to turn into another Abduction (with Taylor Lautner). I really enjoy just watching the films being made, and if the actors have time to come out and visit, even better; but Abduction was so crazy that it ruined it for everyone, even those of us that just like the atmosphere of the movie set, and with a big name like Emma Watson, it would probably be the same.

    • Someone should tell the local media then because they are reporting the same. 🙂

      As far as her being in school, wasn’t she filming the Marilyn movie during the fall semester? It seems like there are a lot of rumors flying around about the movie, I’ll try to get in touch with the pittsburgh film office again. I tried them when I was working on this story but got blown off, maybe they can at least confirm when it will be filming which might help too. Anyway thansk for the update.

      • Yeah, the Post Gazette published a story about it last week (maybe two weeks ago) and then the news stations picked it up, too. It was odd to me though, because Emma has been rumored to be starring in this for many months now. I’ll let you know when I learn anything new, Christine.

    • @jason feel the same way. i think it’s a great role for emma but the attention might turn it into a circus. Lerman though I would really like to see as Charlie as i think he’s an excellent choice for the role. Maybe they’re mum abt filming exact dates bec of the media and public attention the shoot would get. this is an indie production though and filming can’t take too long bec of budget considerations

  4. chbosky did not mention logan lerman and emma watson as starring in the movie during his SRU speech, he mentioned them during the Q & A. And he said it several times bec of insistent questions from the audience. I still don’t think watson is on board yet as she has never mentioned this movie. Lerman, on the other hand has said in several interviews that he’s doing perks and loves the script. But there’s been some rumors that he too is off the project but it looks to be the work of some pranksters which has gotten out of hand. hopefully the prod company itself will make some statement soon on casting and when filming starts.

  5. Truth doesn’t know anything, wanna talk about wishful thinking. Emma’s reps haven’t denied this rumor. In fact they agreed with the Variety report that she was in talks with producers. Stephen did confirm she was Sam at SRU.

  6. I am trying to find out info. on IMDB PRO. It is kind of unreliable. I just got a confirmation from Katie Stevens (American Idol) via Twitter (cast as Mary Elizabeth per IMDB PRO) that she is not signed on to film in “Perks…”.
    ***
    thekatiestevens @NikiMarieR no I’m not! But I love that book so I wish I was!
    ****

    I doubt that a Pittsburgh news channel would report that Emma was involved without confirmation. We’ll just have to wait and see…but I feel pretty confident that Emma will be in this movie.

  7. There is an update in prod weekly but of course I canceled my subscription so I can’t see it but I’m trying to find someone who has it- it might have a start date or cast list in it.

  8. It looks like it will be Emma Watson after all:
    via @aishalerman:@olv production weekly perks of being a wallflower 23 dec update filming early 2011 pittsburgh wd emma watson n logan lerman

  9. So i am leaving for Pittsburgh a day late this year for my annual visit with my family, so I’ll be off at 6am tomorrow, should arrive around 12ish). DOES ANYONE KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THE FILMING IS? haha I’ll be in mt. washington and also downtown pitt. ohhemmmhgeeee

  10. Sarah – They are not filming Perks yet,probably due to the fact that Emma was needed for Harry Potter reshoots. They will begin filming in 2011…maybe starting filming as late as May.

  13. Manay – I haven’t heard anything about her in Pittsburgh yet. Can you provide more details with what you
    saw on Facebook? I just checked imdb.com and noticed a few new developments. Emma is now actually listed on the Perks page. She wasn’t before. Also, there was a comment on the page before that stated “this has not begun filming yet” (or something close to that ) . That has been removed. However the film status is “pre-production and the film start date is listed as May.

    • just wondering why no other entertainment media outlets have picked up on the Liotta casting story. Maybe OLV can do a bit more sleuthing as the same guy keeps announcing his casting in movies (e.g. Unbound Captives a few months ago) and no one ever sees his name on cast lists (unless he probably is the one doing it) or remembers him in the films. I’ve seen several blogs where posters doubt his claims.
      Of all the sources, Production Weekly is usually the most reliable as they source their info directly (i.e. from the prod companies). IMDBPro is just as unreliable as the standard IMDB info available to the public. Still waiting for something more official. Will let you guys know if i find anything

  17. u guys better go easy on the confirmations for the updates as there hasn’t been anything official on this. Production Weekly may be the closest we have to an actual status and its 23 dec issue says early 2011 filming in pittsburgh cast Emma Watson – Logan Lerman. This has been posted in toto on IMDB threads. Someone should also check out the casting announcement of Gabriel Liotta as the guy has a rather spotty record when it comes to casting. If you do more research on him you may see that he makes a lot of casting claims which no one can verify. And no one can recall seeing him in any of the movies or shows he claims to have been in. Just saying, it pays to do some more research on this. On another blog a lot of people commenting that maybe he was cast as a hand or the back of someone’s head in the some of the projects he says he was in. Not saying a total unknown can’t be cast but maybe this warrants more attention.

  18. I think we can just treat this as breaking news until it is proven untrue. There is a possibility, I guess, that he could just be doing this for attention like some of the other people claiming to be cast members on the imdb page….for example, I’m fairly certain that the QB character Brad, needs to be over 4 ft. tall. Let’s see what future issues of production weekly tell us….

  19. As far as PW goes, I’ve been burned by their info too, so who knows? Everything I’ve seen, whether in local Pittsburgh papers, IMDb, PW, interviews, etc, indicates they will shoot in Pittsburgh this year and that Emma is in, not that things can’t change, but it seems as of now, that’s a pretty safe bet. I think the best thing to do is to watch the Pittsburgh Film Office for crew calls, that will be the best indication of when they will start filming and when things will be firmed up.

    As for Gabriel Liotta I had never heard of him before this week so I can’t say whether or not he’s honest, but I don’t really have any reason not to believe him either.

  20. wowowow i really hope it’s not emma… she doesn’t fit a sam character at all. this beloved book is going to be ruined by all the hardcore harry potter fans. faaaantastic.

  21. Liotta is obsessed with Logan and a complete fake. Please don’t give him attention.

    Emma’s reps today told snitchseeker she has no projects in the pipeline so Perks of Being A Wallflower is out.

    • yeah liotta seems to be a logan lerman creeper as someone keeps placing his name in projects rumored or confirmed to feature logan lerman. This happened before with a supposed remake of A Boy and His Dog which turned out to be untrue. Just over the weekend someone over at pottershots forum posted a link to an article on the mtv movies blog supposedly about liotta being interviewed by mtv on perks n unbound captives. there was already something fishy with the art bec of the many typos and the link was wrong. about an hr after it first appeared on line no one could access the article anymore, it just disappeared. so olv better take everything coming from this guy with a grain of salt.

  25. Truth-

    She turned down the script? It doesn’t look like she did according to her twitter. In fact she can’t wait to start filming.

  33. Annika- They will use plenty of locals for crew and as extras. I’m not sure if they will use locals for speaking roles, doubt it. I heard they were holding auditions for speaking roles in L.A. The newest rumor is that they held an audition for an Australian actor named Lincoln Lewis. Also, people are speculating about the restaurant mentioned as a hangout in Perks. Apparently Chobosky said that Eat N Park (chain that started in Pittsburgh) was the inspiration for those scenes.

  35. Sounds like it’s going to be an interesting movie, I almost got scammed into auditioning for this movie by https://theactorclub.vemk.com/ They placed an ad on the gigs section of craigslist saying:
    “Makers of the Stephen Chbosky-directed feature film “The Perks Of Being A Wallflower” are on the lookout for ten powerful actors for filming in the next month. This movie from the producer of “Art School Confidential” will be theatrically released next year. It is going to star Emma Watson. 10 parts are open for production in Early May.

    Reply to this message at DramaticRoles@gmail.com by Saturday morning before noon for more information”

    It sounded legit at first, so i sent them an email inquiring about the movies and they sent me back 5 questions to answer to determine which role i’d fit best, Then they responded with: “Hello again,

    Thanks for taking care of those questions regarding the audition for
    the movie “The Perks Of Being A Wallflower”.

    Based on what you mentioned in your email, we feel that you could
    potentially be a good match for the role of “Bob” in the movie.

    If you’d like to read over a detailed description of this character,
    just go to our website below….

    Once you read over the description for this role, just click through
    to the next page to find out how to audition.

    Our actor’s service provides updates of auditions like this one every
    single week for our members.

    Good luck” The last part didn’t seem right so sure enough when I went to check out the site and clicked submission info it said that I had to pay a $19.99 year subscription fee to their site to audition. From now and on i’m going to be very cautious about gigs on craigslist.

  36. Good advice to avoid scams. Latest casting rumors include Mae Whitman as Mary Elizabeth, Nina Dobrev as Charlie’s sister, Candace…and Paul Rudd as Bill?

  38. No, I dont’ have dates yet for the Hollywood theater.

    I also heard of another location: Peters Township High school. They have announced aprox. dates for the high school. Filming will take 9 days. They will start after graduation (June 10) and “be done by at least” June 30th.

    Also-FYI: Peters township is not accessible by public transportation unless you are williing to walk 5 miles from either Upper St.Clair or Library (seriously). The Hollywood theater is easier to get to via bus…if you choose.

  40. After speaking with the locals in Dormont, it sounds like filming Perks scenes at the Hollywood theater will happen during the second week of May. I assume the actors will be there starting May 10. I heard some stories of when Dogma filmed some scenes there. Apparently Kevin Smith was very friendly, but Chris Rock was a diva!

  43. A man from Pittsburgh said on facebook he was on Emma Watson’s flight yesterday. He said she was amazingly nice. She might be in Pittsburgh already.

  44. @Harley – That’s cool! Can you share more details? Did this guy leave a comment on a fan page? Was he on a flight to NY or Pittsburgh?…coming from England?

  47. Schedule update: Perks will film scenes at the Hollywood theater in Dormont May 23-June 8, not the second week of May. -Dormont Brookline Patch is the source.

    • thank you so much! wonder what else is filming in Pittsburgh? nothing is suppose to be around until next month, I’ll try to find that patch article and add a quick post with another link back here- hopefully we’ll get lots more tipsters posting,t hanks again!

  49. I really want to go to see them! Has anyone done this before that can tell me what to do? I love the book! And Logan and Emma!

    • Hey Marisa,

      I’m planning on taking a trip up to PA in June. I’d love to meet up with other people who are going to visit the set too!

      Megan.

  50. Hi Marisa- We have done this before for Pittsburgh. Check out the old Abduction open thread on this website. Many people got to meet Taylor Lautner. You should set up email subscriptions to this thread, get a Twitter account, follow @olv, @loganlerman, @emwatson, @nikimarier (me) on Twitter.

  58. Which sources? Any pics? We’ve heard numerous reports & saw pics that Logan and Nina are still in NY. Nina tweeted that she was sick in her hotel in NY yesterday, I think.

  60. I am in Erie, PA and want to schedule a day when I can go to a filming site to see Emma. I can’t believe she’s only an hour and a half away, hahaha! So awesome, I’m not a crazy stalker or anything but would really love to see her in person. That would be really cool, keep the updates coming, I love this site!!!

  61. Hey Krum- Nobody here is a crazy stalker. If we were, we would move to L.A. or N.Y. where we could really see the stars.You should plan on coming to Pittsburgh on a weekday. For Abduction, they seemed to do most of their filming during the week.

  64. The Pittsburgh Film Office has announced that they need cars for Perks of Being a Wallflower, via @PghFilmOffice on Twitter:

    Perks of Being A Wallflower” needs vehicles from 1970 to 1991. If interested, please call 412-572-5232.

  65. its been confirmed that the offices for filming are in hendersonville, like 10 minutes from my house, steps away from like 8 places i go every week.

    anyone know where emma is staying?
    or where logan will be staying?

  67. Megan— yeah, I’ll be doing the same thing! I’ll only be in PB for a day in mid June, and I’d like to meet up to see the set! I also think we should consult Niki because she’s done this before. 🙂

  69. Revised filming schedule from Pittsburgh post-gazette: May 9-June 29. Yinz need to learn how to talk Pittsburghese n’at. 🙂 Pittsburgh is usually abbreviated Pgh. Ok. We’re getting close. It’s probably too early to look for signs…but here’s some advice for the future. If you’re driving around Pittsburgh or southern neighborhoods of Pittsburgh, look for yellow signs with black writing. Abduction signs, for example, (for crew driving directions) said “ABX” on them. Hopefully Perks will say something easy like “PERKS” or “POBAW”. If you see ANY cardboard/plastic signs that are yellow w/ black writing around Pittsburgh, please mention it here no matter what it says….except for “yield” and construction signs…LOL. It will probably be for some movie in the Pgh area. We will figure it out. Also look for “base camp” or “crew parking” signs.

      • Not a coincidence. ABX was the production company set up specifically for Abduction. It is not uncommon for studios to form a small production company under a name relating to the film. Another example of this is when I Am Number Four was shooting, DreamWorks created the company Lorien Productions LLC. Lorien is a reference to the planet that the protagonist is from.

  72. Hi Megan- I’m planning on visiting the Hollywood theater in Dormont (again), when filming begins, not sure about the other spots…we’ll see. Do you have a twitter account? It’s really a good idea if you want to get breaking news and meet celebs…because you never know when they will decide to come out to meet fans…so if you’re in the Pittsburgh area on the same day, you need to be ready to go to where they are right away! 🙂

  73. yeah, i do have a twitter! i’m following you now and @olv
    do you live in that area? cause i live in Kansas, so i’m flying up there and staying in a hotel and everything so i was just wondering who all might also be staying in hotels and stuff.

  74. Yes. I live near Pittsburgh. If you’re going to get a hotel, it might be a good idea to get one in downtown Pittsburgh because the downtown area is really the central hub for the public transportation. (www.portauthority.org) The port authority (or PAT buses) consist of 3 parts: buses, the T (which is underground for downtown Pgh, then goes aboveground when it travels south of Pgh), and the Inclines. The inclines are cool. There are 2: the Duquesne incline or Monongahela incline. Duquesne is pronounce “DOO-CANE”.

    Alternatively, you could get a cheaper hotel in/near Dormont and rent a car to get around. The two locations that we know of so far are south of Pittsburgh.

  75. Wow, awesome, thanks. That’s a lot of good info!
    Unfortunately, my friend and I are both under 25 so we can’t rent a car. So that makes choosing a hotel a bit more difficult. We want to save money, of course, but if we didn’t stay downtown, we’d have to take taxis into the city or figure out the bus route. The hotel we found is south of Pittsburgh, the Red Roof Inn I believe, would you recommend staying there? I guess that doesn’t necessarily give us the advantage of better public transportation, though. Or does it? haha I have no idea! Sorry I have so many questions!

    • Check the rental car companies in the airport and see what the age limit is. Pittsburgh and surrounding areas have really bad public transit – especially once you get outside the city.

      Here is Budget rental car requirements Renters 21-24 must present a valid, acceptable credit card (debit cards are not permitted) and a valid driver’s license (subject to screening of your driving record), both in the renter’s name.

      https://www.budget.com/budgetWeb/html/en/customer/commonquestions/#What are the minimum age requirements for renting?

  76. I saw 3 red roof inns near Pittsburgh- all 3 are a bad idea for location. The 3 were in Washington, Monroeville, and Robinson. I saw a Comfort Inn near Dormont. That is closer. Check that out. The red roof inn near Washington, Pa was outside the reach of the public transportation (PAT).

  78. Apparently, the school scenes will be shot at Peters Township high school. And I’ve heard rumors the house is in the neighborhood behind the Upper St. Clair high school.

    Both are less than ten minutes away from me so I’m pretty excited!

  79. May 9th? That’s too bad, I leave Pittsburgh on May10th. If somebody has any info on locations or sightings before May10th I would really appreciate it.

  80. Someone spotted movie trucks in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh near Webster hall. No idea which movie. Maybe reshoots for “One for the Money” or “Abduction” are possibilities. Hot shot scenes in nearby Schenley park.

  81. Do not forget people, Pittsburgh has a few movies filming here this summer. Like – oh I dunno – BATMAN! While I am very excited Emma is coming to Pittsburgh, just be sure of info before posting “rumors” here. This was a great sight to come to when ‘Abduction’ was being filmed here – lots of great tips.

  83. The “rumor” for the house behind Upper St. Clair is for POBAW. They for positive scouted the houses there. Stephen Chbosky is from Upper St. Clair and wanted to use the high school in the movie. The high school was too modern looking so they moved to it’s neighboring high school of Peter’s township. Considering the last day of school I’d assume they’d shoot there anywhere between June 13th – June 29th.

  84. @Niki and POBAW — the statement was a general statement obviously you two feel compelled or guilty of something to specifically make statements.

    And Niki — We have no confirmed dates on this filming yet either – but the dates that are being thrown out there are for the end of May and into June – so again, just be mindful of your postings when you see ABX and Haddad signs.

    There are also going to be a lot more movies being filmed in Pittsburgh and throughout Pennsylvania because of the film tax credit – so again be mindful

  85. Here is the news from WPXI (a Pittsburgh news station for those not in the area) https://www.wpxi.com/entertainment/27229066/detail.html

  87. I heard for sure they r filming at peters township school. I know someone that goes there and she said it’s definatley happening. She will let me know if she hears more. Do we know when Emma Watson will be filming? Or where base camp is?

  89. I would reccommend that everyone interested in meeting these actors should read the book. That way you can easily predict which actors will be needed for certain locations. I think the Sam (Emma W.), Patrick (Ezra M.) and Charlie(Logan L.) actors will be needed at all of the locations.

  91. Agree with Jason.
    I checked around Oakland again today. No movie trucks. I know that “a movie company” was buying furniture from the Pitt surplus. Maybe that’s all they were doing on Friday. Boring.

  93. They will be doing reshoots for the movie Abduction, starring Taylor Lautner & Sigourney Weaver tomorrow 5/3/2011 at PNC park according to Port Authority: https://ow.ly/4Io1A

    I think if Taylor & Emma are in the same place at the same time, it would be good to talk about Incarceron…? 🙂

  94. @ninadobrev tweeted:
    Ktla this morning! Tune in! Then a quick bite and off to the airport to go to Pittsburg for Wallflower… Wooooot!

    So excited I can forgive her for missing the H in Pittsburgh.

  97. Just wanted to add a link to the post I did with the theater location info:

    https://onlocationvacations.com/2011/04/26/first-pittsburgh-filming-location-for-perks-of-being-a-wallflower-revealed/

    Filming starts next week so be sure to pass around this link!

    I am going to republish this link, which means I’ll lose all RTs and FB likes, but I want to rename it as an open thread and push to top- just as an FYI, you may need to “resave” your link.

    Thanks so much to everyone who has been adding info, don’t forget to add your pics and tips as they start filming!

    PS- watch out, notice some people must be trolling this thread, all of our info here seems to be popping up other places so if you see any weird posts here, pls let me know- it may be someone fishing for info or trying to spam… thanks again to all for everything!

  98. If you look on the website for Peter Township high school…in their announcements it confirms that Emma Watson is filming in their school!!! I live in Butler County which is a half hour north of Pittsburgh and I’ll be scoping the scene next week! I’m off the whole week might as well spend my time scoping it out! I’ll post my findings on here!

    If anyone else here any information please find me on twitter @bushesobrandy or email me!!!!

  99. I will be in Pittsburgh May 19th through the 23rd and I plan on visiting the set at some point during that time. Anyone else planning on being there in that time frame? I guess it depends on where they’re filming at that point…

  100. I’ll be in Pittsburgh June 1-4th to visit the set! If anyone is going to be there at the same time, let me know!

  104. I found the house in Upper St. Clair using my creeper skills. I got a couple pictures of the trucks as I was driving. I’m out for the day but I’ll update you guys tonight.

  105. I checked around a bit today. Some houses on the corner of Navajo & Brookside seemed a little suspicious. There were several vehicles in the driveway and a white trailer. There was also a port o potty on the corner of thr yard. Some furniture was on the front porch. It’s probably just renovations. I didn’t see any signs where i was at. Mae Whitman just tweeted that she had dinner with Logan & Nicholas Braun.

    • Niki, I live around the corner from Navajo (on Shawnee) and they’ve been fixing a gas line along that street for a few weeks now. I haven’t heard about any filming in our neighborhood but will keep you posted.

  106. It should be more obvious on Monday. I think they will have to close off the street like they did for Abduction. It’s better for the audio.

  112. Come on guys. Don’t be mean. If we had information we’d share it with you! Where are they filming tomorrow?

  113. We just don’t have the manpower with this like we did with Abduction. I think we only have 3 people looking in Upper st. Clair including myself. We need to get more people on the roads.

  118. There are a bunch of the trailers and stuff right by Georgetown estates (it’s a neighborhood :p) in Laurence PA….

  119. so will anyone be there june 10th through 20th? i’ll be there for one day sometime then and i wonder if they’ll still be there… i assume so… will anyone help me when the time comes? i’ll probably need someone to help me find where they’re shooting on the day i’ll be there.

  121. Niki, ya Georgetown is the base camp. I talked to the security guy for a while. and thats where they are keeping the costumes and doing hair and makeup every day. the cast will be there every morning 7-9

  125. SWEET!! Tomorrow after work I’ll be heading down that way. Should be rolling in around 3! I’ll keep you guys posted! Do the same!

  126. Pobaw, I’m not sure. All I know is the security guy said that they would be at the hair makeup costume place seven to nine in the mornings

  128. I don’t go into to work today until 3PM. I’m going to go drive around Upper St Clair right now to see if I can find anything. I’ll let you all know and post pictures if I do!

  132. That’s exactly what they did with Abduction. The police blocked off the street(s) where they were filming the house scenes and wouldn’t let anyone through ( by car, bike, or on foot) unless they could show ID with their address on it. Also, some security guards on Abduction set were known to lie to fans. It makes their job easier. I thought it sounded pretty odd for the security guards to give out that kind of info. with hair/makeup schedule, etc.

  137. Completely stalked today.

    I saw them filming a little bit. Kate Walsh is playing the mom & Dylan McDermott is the dad. I got to met Logan Lerman, Nicholas Braun and Nina Dobrev! All really sweet, Logan really took time to talk to all of us, get pictures and sign autographs. I have to say I think the only reason they let us get pictures though is because there was only 4 of us stalkers there (and the little neighbors boys ran down when they were taking pictures). But that’s no reason to still not go & stalk the set but I wouldn’t get your hopes up. I was trying all day long!

  140. Drove an hour and half to stalk and got there just as the actors left…FML! If we hadn’t gotten lost I would have seen them! Security was tight. They had the actual township cops there from what I could see. We passed the van with the actors and I thought I saw Emma but it was quick so I could have been mistaken.

    I saw on twitter that a couple of other people were actually on set…my question is..where did you guys park and did they let you close?

    I definitely wanna go down there again but be better prepared

  141. Ok I guess it wasn’t Emma….darn. I really wanted to at least meet Nina. I’ve been on the Vampire Diaries set twice and didn’t get to meet her!

    I’m glad this site is up! Time to save up for another trip down there!!!

  142. Yeah there’s township cops on the outside and once you get past them security guards. They said the more people that show up the more cops will be brought and the further we’ll have to stand back.

  145. So here’s my experience from today.
    Went to Baker Park and we ran into a security guy (very nice) who told us they were done filming for the day…and that we were at base camp. There wasn’t anywhere for us to go, so we just left.
    Then we checked out Georgetown Estates. Nothing there…except….on one street (can’t remember the name) there were a BUNCH of cars…and a sign that said PAW (I figured it stood for Perks of being A Wallflower, but I could be wrong). That’s really the only action we saw. We were semi-happy though…at least we went to the right places.
    If anyone knows where they will be tomorrow, please leave a post! I know we all would appreciate it on here! I hope everyone gets the chance to me their favorite POBAW star : )

  146. The “basecamp” was less secure, only saw 1 guard, who was nice and insightful. You could park down the street from the park and walk up.

    I think he said they will probably be in the same place a few days, you could see the actors from the park walking around, in my opinion the best place to see them.

  147. I’m going to go down to Upper St Clair again today. Yesterdy was a bust for me because as soon as I finally found something I had to leave for work lol.

    I have no idea where I’m actually going to go/park so this should be interesting! Haha

  148. any recommendations on a good time of day to go, POBAW? my little bro and i are planning on going around 1230-1 today

  151. alright I’m going back to base. If you park in the baseball field behind the park you can walk up a trail that will take you 10 feet from the trailers. There are a bunch of people walking around base!

  152. OK, so where is base camp exactly. Is it the Georgetown Estates? Or is it Ewing? Thanks for all of this info guys!

  154. Yes, base camp is at Baker Park : )
    There was nothing at Georgetown Estates last night, I think they were filming there yesterday morning though (so I’ve heard)

  156. bakers park is the place to be because where they’re filming.. it’s a dead end and you won’t be getting near there. the security guard said that between 215-3 is their lunch break… it’s a good time to be there. I met and got a pic with Nina Dobrev today(!!!), Logan waved to me, and Mae Whitman was sitting in the sun on a towel like 20 feet from me. It was awesome!!

  157. My brother got called to be an extra on Tuesday!!! I’m going to take him down and hopefully I can finally see some action!!!

  158. Man guys, do you still everything will be the same mid June? I feel like if theyre still filming then, they’re gonna be tired of fans or something…hmm.

  161. The jerk wouldnt let me sit on Ninas lap, he said it wasn’t appropriate and that if I tried he would drop much me

  162. It’s filming at my high school June. Peters Township High School. They’re accepting applications for movie extras too! But, you have to be 18. PS Peters Township High School is in McMurray, PA. The logo (an indian) will be used, but the name of the school won’t be used in the movie. I’ll let you know the exact dates soon :).. PS. The author came from South Park, but since we have such a crappy looking school, they wanna use ours.

  164. Nina Bodrev is at bridgeville mcdonalds eating a salad, said she was going going to south hills village to get an ipad

  166. That’s weird-I didn’t think they would be staying in a hotel. Thought it would be trailers.

    Filming at Peters Township h.s. should take place between June 13-June 29. They can’t film there until after graduation (June 10).

    Also, it’s a really really good idea to read old posts on this thread. Your questions may have already been answered earlier.

    Here is a link to an article about Peters township h.s.

  167. Please respect the wishes and boundaries of the security team when visiting the set. They have the right to turn everyone away if they think people are getting too aggressive.

  169. A bunch of guys were harassing the cast now there are police everywhere, heard them say no more autographs period and there sending everyone away

    Thanks for ruining it

  172. Truth to the hole story is they are staying at a hotel. Logan ase bought some tree from a guy i know i have proff from his cali cell phone #. I took my friend to meet the cast and they where so rude Good luck buying more wee logan

  173. Emma is flying in tonight. Good karma to those who get on-set pictures. Double karma to those who get Logan,Ezra and Emma in a group photograph

  174. Come on guys don’t ruin it for other people! These celebrities are people too! How would you like it if some stranger was walking up to you in a restaurant while you’re eating asking for your picture? Or standing outside of your hotel like some crazy!

    I for one would be freaking if there was someone standing outside of where I sleep!

    Visit them at the set where they are working and be kind and polite and courteous. Don’t give security a reason to close off the set. It just ruins it for the rest of us who would be willing to be polite.

  175. As we know : 4/29/2011
    the peters school district should start worrying about the drug problem they have . But I guess money not their kids are more important .

    PETERS RESIDENT
    ——————————————————————————–
    Sounds like Logan type of school!

  176. Thanks to everyone for all of the comments and information already -and we’re not even a week into filming!

    If anyone has set pics they’d like posted, let me know at olv@onlocationvacations.com, we’d love to share.

    And just a reminder that we’re hoping to keep a good conversation going with location information, tips and details. Please try to stay on topic and provide as many details as possible to help other fans, hopefully everyone can work together and everyone will get a chance to see the cast! Thanks again!

  178. Too bad about the people who ruined it. Hopefully if everyone chills for a bit things will cool down. And Jessica– well said. 🙂

  179. Will someone PLEASE confirm an Emma sighting? I’m planning vacation days around this, and I want to know that she is on site before I roll to the Burgh from Erie!

  181. Hey Krum- I heard from a few sources tonight that Emma is now in Pittsburgh. However, it seems that Emma has quite a hectic schedule, so there is no way to guarantee that she will remain in Pittsburgh (with no traveling) until the end of filming on June 29. I believe that it is typical for movies to film on weekdays. Do you have a Twitter account? You should follow @WatsonUpdates on Twitter. They’re really good. Other notes – John Malkovich is in Pittsburgh & Nina Dobrev tweeted that she is at the Pgh Pirates game tonight.

  182. Uh-oh. That sucks that people were harassing them, and it’s really rude. Honestly, I would wait for hours to meet them if I had too…I’d keep my mouth shut and sit in a mud puddle if that what was required. We gotta remember to act like normal people when visiting them, lol. If not, we might be ruining it for others. It was crazy when Taylor Lautner was here, I wouldn’t want that to happen again! Hopefully they let people meet them, cause that would suck if they had to stop =(

  183. 1. Actors are technically not suppose to sign autographs or take pictures without their publicist.

    2. The Actors are “Working” Imagine tons of people coming to your job and sorry to say get in the way, the movie would never get done.

    3. Large Groups = Bad, If you come with a bunch of people that is intimidating to the stars, smaller groups i would say 1 or 2 people are best. If you read around those are the kinda people that had the best luck.

    4. Screaming and Causing a Scene = Bad, Annoying someone is not the best way to get someone to approach you.

    5. Patients = Good. Good things come to those who wait. Your not gonna show up stand there for 5 minutes and have stars run at you…. it can be long wait, hours or even days before you get your chance… remember your not in their schedule and they are moved around in and out of make up wardrobe and where ever else they need to go, making a movie is not an easy thing to do and is very stressful to the actors.

    6. Hotels = Very bad. The worst thing you can do is go to the hotel, this is where they sleep and puts the actors in a defensive mode and makes them wanna stay away from the public. once again imagine someone entering your house an standing outside your bedroom door.

    7. Let them come to you, find a place where they can see you. There are boundaries that you cannot cross so this can be difficult, remember if your in the way your making lots of peoples jobs and lives harder. The more these boundaries are crossed the bigger the boundaries will become.

    I had more to say but i’m tired of typing bottom line:

    Don’t get to close, Don’t annoy, Avoid large groups, and most of all RESPECT the actors.

  184. Large groups are fine as long as everyone behaves. No screaming. Be respectful of the actors, security team, crew, and neighbors. Please don’t litter. Try not to walk through people’s lawns.

  185. Hi,

    Any ones advice would be really helpful:

    I was contacted on April 28 to possibly be an extra on POBAW. I sort of gave up hope after May 9th when I still hadn’t heard anything back.

    Could there still be a chance?
    Are they still choosing extras?
    Is there anything I could do at this point?
    Should I send my information again?

    It would honestly be a dream come true if I was able to be an extra in the film. So if anyone has advice I would love to hear it.

    • My brother was contacted on Tuesday about being an extra. They told him they would send him an email on Monday with information about the work he would be doing on Tuesday (5/17).

      I submitted his information Monday night and they called him on Tuesday. I found the casting call off of their facebook site. Mosser Casting. I would say keep checking there for updates and keep submitting yourself every time there is a new notice!!!

      Hope this helps!

      • Thanks Jessica!

        Yeah, they contacted me on Thursday (April 28) and then I didn’t hear back from them, it was Mosser Casting who contacted me too. I guess I’ll just be patient and hopeful. I’m a young (18) and just starting actor but Perks is my all time favorite book and it would be so very amazing if I could be part of the film.

      • Just wondering what casting call you saw on Mosser’s FB page — I’ve been checking but haven’t really seen any. Did you just send to the perksextras@gmail.com address? I would like to submit but wasn’t sure if that’s only for “18-year-olds who look 14” – I saw them post something about that.

        • I saw a couple on the facebook website… You have to scroll down through their wall posts to find them.

          One was the 18 to 14. That we submitted to perksextras@gmail.com

          One was for comedic 20 year olds. I think this was actual part. That had to be submitted through Mosser Casting.

          And today I see the posted one looking for die hard Rocky Horror fans that know the audience call outs etc… 18-45 years old. Send to perksextras@gmail.com again

          I’m totally submitting myself for that.

          Hope that helps!

  186. All lies to the fans who get bad name!no one was harrased or threatened at all! Seriosly we go see there movies and buy there blu rays and we are the bad guys all lies logan lerman tmz star magazine ect!!!!!!!

  188. Guys — The cat is not staying at the Crown Plaza. It is an old run down hotel that used to be a Holiday Inn. There is no way they would be stayong there for a month or two. My guess would be one of the upscale hotels in downtown Pittsburgh.

    • If staying in downtown, possibly the new Fairmont Hotel on Fifth and Liberty; it’s high end and is close to the major arteries getting into and out of Downtown Pittsburgh (it’s across the street from my office, so I’ve been keeping my eye on it); there have been several black limousine SUVs parked out in front in the past 2 weeks. Could mean absolutely nothing, but thought I would share. Thought initially about the William Penn (it’s a bit run-down), the Marriott City Center (too close to the Consol Energy Center–where the major concerts are played and would be a traffic nightmare getting in and out), and the Westin (too close to the Convention Center and this is the hotel always used by events at the Convention Center so too public).

  189. I think the celebs need to understand that Pittsburghers are new to this whole “major movie making” business. I mean, we had Taylor Lautner here and you would think the President rolled into town. We are not used to seeing major celebs around town or the filming of MAJOR movies. I just hope Pittsburghers represent the city well to where celebs want to come here to film.

  190. They are 100% at the crowne plaza. The whole crew taking this how you want this is all honest Logan has bought weed from someone I know on several occasions. He told me was staying there and he was correct. The hotel security called the cops on us and said we threted the cast. When thew cast was still on set the police came and said we could not be there we gave them no problem and left again when at the hotel we didnt not see any people ask for autographs or pictures. i could understand the hotel point of view the are sold out cause how many people are there from the movie. But the hotel did lie and the people on set that the actors where threated Instead of making the actors look bad it easy to blame the fans Mae Whitman is very nice by the way. I didnt feel like it should be the public people should know about Logan weed habit till the lioed about the fans that are there for them Again thsi is 100% real i saw the texts from Logan California cell phone number to buy weed Try to think maybe it is the actors not the fans

  191. To “Logan Smokes Weed” –

    I can believe everything you said except the part about Logan buying weed from your friend. I highly doubt he would just find some random person that he doesn’t know to buy weed from – how would he even know your friend sold it? How did he even find your friend in the first place? That just doesn’t make sense to me.

    If by some slim chance this did actually happen, then what are the last 2 digits of Logan’s phone number? Or the first 2? Give me any 2 consecutive numbers of it besides the area code – I’ll know whether it’s really his.

  192. Okay, guys, seriously. Drop the whole Logan-smoking-weed thing. Who cares? This isn’t a gossip forum. There are people, like me, who are actually interested in the filming process and want to see/meet the actors because we admire them–not because we want to sell their autograph.

    Let’s keep things on topic, shall we?

    • Thank you Megan! I too am interested in where the movie is filming in and around the Upper St. Clair area. As a former hotel manager, I can tell everyone they are NOT staying at the Crowne Plaza. A group of A list celebrities would never stay for any period of time at that hotel. They are at a hotel with suites. And, a hotel employee would be fired if they divulged this information.

  193. does anyone know where they are going to be filming tomorrow or next week? will they still be in upper st. clair? Thanks!

  194. Like I said everything i said is true. That is how i know they where at the Crowne plaza If you know Logan so well ask him about the guy with the red car I am not making his information public and I would not say something to that affect if it was not true and that I can’t prove if needed. Also if you know Logan you know his habbits. I like Megan did want to just meet the actors. Photog yes they are at the crowne plaza you can think what you want as a former hotel manager but your are incorrect

  195. Emma Watson put this on her twitter about an hour ago:

    “Had such an amazing time in Paris with Lancome! Soon to start filming Perks of Being a Wallflower – can’t wait! Hope everyone’s ok xx”

  197. I’m thinking about going down tomorrow. They’re shooting about an hour away from me. I really love the show “Parenthood” so I want to meet Mae Whitman the most.

  198. Dear Logan smokes trees,

    There are many of us on this site who are sincerely interested in finding out where the filming is taking place so that we can have the opportunity to watch it and hopefully meet the cast. We truly want to help each other. Please stop posting accusations about one of the actors. This is unfair to him and no one is interested the stories you are making up.

    Thank you.

    • You are right! And “Logan Smokes Trees” can actually be sued for slander if Logan or his publicist see these posts.

      Does anyone know if Emma is filming this week? I guess she just arrived in Pittsburgh or is not here yet… getting some mixed messages about that.

  199. does somnebody know if Emma has long or short hair for the film? that really bothers me because I imagined Sam rather with long hair, as it is written in the book. If someone sees her on set – please tell

  200. They are still filming in that same neighborhood today and tomorrow…behind the St. Clair country club. I’m not sure about next week. Emma is not filming there today….maybe tomorrow. 🙂 I think there are some scenes that they have to do together from the book at “Charlie’s house”…not sure.

    • Niki – Do you what streets they are filming on? Are they outside or in a house? Are they on the streets off of Morrow Road? We saw the trailers parked in Baker Park but haven’t found anything else. Thanks!

  201. Dont worry I want Logan to see what I say he knows it is the truth. Like i said I would not make a accusation against someone like that if I could not prove it. I also know I could get in trouble for making up lies about him but I am only speaking the truth about Logan and have proof if he decides to go that way. I am also interested in the film but for them to lie about the people who are there showing there support and say they where where harrasing trhe actors is a lie.

    • Okay, but the point is, this is not the place to be having that discussion. Once again, this is NOT a gossip forum! Please stop posting.

    • Enough already. And FYI – an accusation is just that, an accusation. You can still face legal ramifications for your statements. Please leave this thread for those that want to know where the stars are filming.

      To the rest:

      I think Emma would probably wear a wig during filming. Although, I am loving her short hair! I would be on the lookout for both styles though, just in case.

  203. does the little icon next to your comment stay the same for every comment you post.. no matter what you change you name to?

  204. @photog- I believe they are filming scenes inside a house. Not sure which street. You might get the security team mad if you look for it. You should probably stick close to the trailers & white tents. Do you have Twitter? There are some very helpful people on Twitter.
    @wondering – I think it’s random.

      • Hi photog- Follow these people on twitter:
        Me (@NikiMarieR)- look at who I am following & follow them.

        Some cast members have real twitter accounts: @ninadobrev, @katewalsh, @emwatson, @loganlerman, @nicholasbraun (not 100% sure about this twitter account b/c it’s not verified), Mae Whitman= @maebirdwing,

        Also– @olv, @ustclairpatch, @ethantmiller (extra/stand-in).
        & Maybe @pghtransit b/c they sometimes announce traffic detours for movie shoots.
        I think out of the most recent 40 people I have followed, 35 are for Perks. So, check out my “top 40” that I am following.

  205. @photog- I believe they are filming scenes inside a house. Not sure which street. You might get the security team mad if you look for it. You should probably stick close to the trailers & white tents. Do you have Twitter? There are some very helpful people on Twitter.
    @wondering – I think it’s random.

  209. Kristin- That’s awesome! Is that snow real or is it for the movie? Also, care to share anymore of your experience with us? (Cast sightings, information, etc)

    Thanks again! 🙂

  210. i walked through very early before anyone was there just security. I couldn’t get any closer because they were coming back, didn’t wanna get in trouble it looked real

  211. It’s 70 degrees here. How could the snow be real? Thanks for the picture, Kristin! 🙂 I’m heading down there today around 12:45pm.

  213. Emma is not at Peters Township High School. Shooting at the high school does not start until mid-June after school is out.

  214. That’s right. Shooting at Peters twp. h.s. will not start until after commencement (June 10). It could be possible that she is checking out the place…..but not likely…?

  215. Yes they were filming at peters high school today. My friend said that there was an area of the school closed off and there were cops around it. She said they will be filming Tuesday and wednsday also. They will be there June 24 also. I guess they had the cops there to prevent anyone causing danger to the school or kids ( in case people really wanna see the filming). My friend texted me during school to let me know this info so he knew exactly what was going on. Keep posting info! 😉

    • Just talked to my cousin who goes to PTHS. she said just the crew was at the school today to prep for filming there on the 17th and 18th next week.

  217. They Are Still Filming in the same location, they were probably getting ready to film there it takes a few days to prepare a location for filming. Unless there are trailers all around the building its doubtful that they are actually filming

  219. Hey everybody,

    i’m out of school for the summer so i decided to follow this production around the wonderful city of Pittsburgh, i will be tweeting only confirmed information on @followperks so follow along! I’m on set right now and i head a lady with a walkie talkie tell someone that Emma doesn’t have any scenes till monday so she won’t be around today and i also heard them talking about Peters High School for a couple days next week!

  220. My sister and I were on set today for a couple hours. I was looking for Mae, but did not see her anywhere. A lady that is working on the movie that we met at the base camp said that she wasn’t there today. She was really nice and she was helping us, so I think we can trust her. While we were talking to her Kate Walsh drove by in a car back to her trailer. I saw Logan a couple times walking from trailer to trailer. Nina was walking around the base camp talking on her phone. We were really close to her and could have met her, but I’m not really a fan of hers so we didn’t bother her.

    From there we went to the house where they are filming. None of the cast was there, but we met a really nice crew member that told us that Mae and Emma were going to be there filming at 3pm. We came back at 3 but they weren’t there. I don’t think he was lying. He just didn’t know. He was trying to help us.

    There was a really mean security guard at the base camp. There were only two of us there and he made us stand way far away from the trailers and said we weren’t allowed to talk to any stars or get autographs. That’s when the nice lady came out to her car to get something and we told her how mean the guard was. She said that was not true at all and that the actors had been signing autographs and meeting fans and they didn’t mind doing it at all. She actually works on the movie so she knows what she’s talking about. I know the guard was just doing his job, but he was really rude. He threatened to call the police if we tried to pull anything. :O We’re two teenage girls standing quetly on the grass like he told us. What are we going to “try to pull?” He drove back to us just to tell us that.

    After that we left the base camp and went back to the house.We waited there for like 15 minutes and talking to one of the police officers that was standing guard right infront of the house. He was really nice. There was a group of about 8 high school girls waiting there to. Shortly after they left, when it was just me and my sister, Logan and Nina pulled up in a van and got out right infront of us. I asked Logan for an autograph, but he didn’t even look at me. I don’t think he heard me… Or he was just really rude. Anyway, after that it started to really rain hard so we left.

    It was cool to see the set and everything, but I was disappointed Mae wasn’t there. I’m hoping to go back another day. I guess they were filming until early this morning- ’till about 3am, and they had to wait 12 hours before they could start filming again- union rules.

  221. Kat, what did that security Guard look like, ill be sure to avoid him, i talked some of the other guards they didn’t seem to care what i did as long as i wasn’t bothering anyone or interfering with the production.

    ha i just read that he drove to tell you something, he actually chased you in his car? sounds like a Farva/Paul Blart.

    I’ve noticed that Logan doesn’t seem to have any interests in the fans its gonna be hard to get anything out of him everyone else seems really nice

    • He was driving a dark blue SUV. He had short brown hair and a mustache. First he drove by and told us to stand over on the grass. We went and stood on the grass and then he drove back over to us and said the thing about calling the police when we were doing absolutely NOTHING.

      • Logan is very sweet. There was a group of about 15 middle school girls, and he came over to take pics/autographs. Very cheery!

  222. Thanks for all the info Kat. Sorry about your experience with the security guard, I know from experience they sometimes easily let the power go to their heads. As for Logan I’m betting he didn’t hear you, from what I’ve heard of fans meeting him he’s always talkative, engaged and polite. If you see him again just make sure to get his attention. (:

  223. Can anyone confirm whether or not they are doing a night shoot tonight? Or shooting into the early morning rather? I know they’ve been on set today already but Kate Walsh mentioned something about a night shoot to someone on twitter, not sure if she meant tonight or what…

  224. So… this is a random question for the people who have visited the set: how many fans have been on set at one time ….10-20? Just curious, comparing it to Abduction. 🙂

    • are they filming today or are the trucks just there? wondering if that is where they will shoot Monday since there is some debate about whether or not they are shooting at the school next week, thanks!!

  227. oh Thanks. Must be filming Charlie’s shopping with his mom and sister scene. or could be Big Boy scenes.
    Really want to see some filming pics.

  229. Hey all,

    My guess would be that since the extras (18 years olds that look 14) are being called to work on Tuesday is they are filming in the high school. That’s the only reason I could think of using extras that look young was to fill up the high school hallways.

    Hope that helps!

  230. My friend’s kids go to Peters Township High School. Filming will not start there until after graduation on June 10. The trailers are parked in the parking of South Hills Village near the old Boscov’s.

  231. There seem to be differing opinions on whether or not they’re filming at PTHS before graduation, but I talked to my cousin who is a sophomore there, and she said the crews were there last week to get one of the classrooms ready for filming this coming Tues. and Wednesday. She knew because the class they’re filming in is her usual English class. I don’t think they’re going to have extras walking around the halls if school is in session but maybe they needed kids to fill up a classroom. Makes sense for the 18-but-look-14 requirement, too.

    • I only have one picture of Logan and Nina’s backs as they’re walking up the driveway to the house. Nothing special, but if you want to see it, I’ll try to upload it. Then I have a couple other pics of the base camp and the house.

  233. Hey guys according to @followperks trucks only parked at mall for weekend – I’m not confirming anything just passing on the info …

    Sine there’s some debate about filming at the high school if they are there would someone be able to send us a photo? As Niki and some of the others know after past experiences q/ abduction thread it can be hard to take ppl’s word so maybe if anyone does have location info if u’d be willing to send a pic too that would be awesome!

    You guys can always send pic to me to upload atolv@onlocationvacations.com , thanks!

  234. Okay, so I just went to check on the trailers at South Hills Village, and I got to talk to the security guard, and here’s what he told me (whether it’s true or not, I don’t know. He seemed nice though, so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt):

    -The trailers/cars will always be parked there on weekends until the end of filming, as they arranged to use the empty parking lot near Boscov’s as storage on weekends

    -Filming at PTHS is beginning next week

    -Emma apparently likes Bistro 19 and La Pomponnee (a spa) in Mt. Lebanon

    -All filming will be done M-F

  235. The security guard at the mall this afternoon told me they were filming inside the mall last night and tonight (Saturday). So, my guess is they really don’t know. When you think about it, that information probably wouldn’t be shared with them anyway. As I mentioned earlier, my friend has two sons that attend Peter’s Township High School. She said the school informed them that shooting would not start until after graduation. That doesn’t mean they couldn’t be setting up a classroom now. The classroom will need a makeover. The technology in classrooms today is totally different than it was in the early 90s. If they do end up shooting at the school before graduation, they will probably do it at night. It would be too difficult to film in the middle of a school day.

    • Actually, now that you mention it, I went back and re-read my cousin’s FB message where she told me they’d be filming at the school this week, and she said they’ll be doing it from 3 pm to 3 am, which makes sense because of what you said with the difficulty of shooting during the school day.

      Guess we’ll find out what’s going on in a few days regardless, but if I was a betting girl, I’d place my bets that they will be at PTHS on Tues. and Weds.

  236. @photog

    Did you speak to a Mall Security Guard (white uniform) or the Movie Security Guard (black uniform) at the trailers? IF you were by the trailers you would of noticed that they are all packed up and ready to move, not unpacked for working.

    • @followperks It was the guy in the white uniform driving the truck around the parking lot. I didn’t guards in black uniforms. There were two cars parked very close to the trailers and there were two guys standing by cars in jeans and t-shirts. All of the trailers were closed. I also noticed an older model station wagon and another car in the same area.

      • Yeah information from the white uniformed mall security guard would be false, they probably don’t get the information because it is sensitive stuff they don’t need to know. I’m assuming your a nice looking female so he was probably just trying to flirt with you making stuff up!

        • Thanks for the compliment! As for older malls, the Washington Mall or Washington Crowne Center would work. Just a thought.

  238. They may be doing the inside shots now and the football game shots after graduation.

    I don’t think they are filming this weekend. Ezra is leaving Cannes tomorrow.

  240. yeah some of those security guards give out false information, perhaps we should sort out the security guards to help other avoid them so far we have….

    Mean Guard – Blue SUV He had short brown hair and a mustache. Lies

    what time did you talk to this guard next guard?

  241. The guard I spoke to was there around 3:15 pm yesterday. He was nice, had short-ish brown/blond hair, and had a smaller silver car.
    And the information he told me – including the stuff about Bistro 19 – was verified by a friend of mine later, who texted me that she had been at Bistro 19. So if he told me that, I doubt all the other stuff he told me would have been false.

  242. I am trying to see where I can meet Emma and I have been following this thread for a long time.
    I live in Pgh so can anyone tell me, where I can the greatest chance of meeting her? I know last monday she was in Paris. For the launch of her Tresor–Lancome line.. So i don’t know.
    I’ll be checking for replies thank you for the help guys!

  243. Rumor is Emma will be filming tomorrow so check in here regularly to find out where. She was seen by many people at Giant Eagle yesterday.

  244. @followperks- you wrote on twitter that the mall won’t let them film there. Where are there other locations to film mall scenes near there?

    • Not sure, but guest services at the mall said they there were negotiations to use the mall but they couldn’t come to an agreement. All the malls in the area are owned by the same company Simon. There is Pittsburgh mills and Robinson but they are modernized so i don’t think they would be a good location.

      As for Filming next week multiple sources are saying Peters High School Tuesday and Wednesday, nothing for Monday Thursday of Friday.has been confirmed but there have been some rumors of some kids dressed in church gear so possibly a church scene coming up soon, anyone seen any guards, trucks or equipment at any churches in the area?

  245. I talked to a woman who has 2 boys who will be participating in Catholic church scenes this week. She doesn’t want to get in trouble by giving location.

    • So that puts a Church Scene Monday, Thursday or Friday. Maybe ill drive around and scout some Churches looking for signs or other indicators of filming. IF its not till Thursday we probably won’t find anything but its tomorrow there will defiantly be something somewhere

    • My friend’s mom is a secretary at that church and I can confirm this info – she said they’re filming in the sanctuary at BP Presby on Monday.

  251. My friend just texted me and said Emma is at bladerunners this morning (Bethel Park.) Are they filming anything there?

  253. I’m by the set now doesn’t look like to much is going on but it is definitely set up for filming behind the church havnt seen anyone yet…

  257. They are filming in the church at the moment . lots of white vans driving back and forth from basecamp to set I still have not got a good look to see anyone but lots of movement

  258. I’ve been sitting at the base camp…I did this last year when taylor lautner was here and thats where I met him. I’ve also been driving around the set since its so close.

  259. I was at the set and base camp today. I saw Kate Walsh, Paul Rudd, Nina Dobrev, and Johnny Simmons.

    There really isn’t a great vantage point for the outside church scenes unless you stand across the busy street.

    You can stand around at base camp, but take no pictures or approach the actors.

    • Everyone was super nice and brought people over to us standing there. I sent Christine some photos. Filming until 9 tonight and hopefully Emma and Logan will be back. We were allowed to send nearby. Someone said Logan is very approachable and would come over to speak with us in between his filming. I will try and get back tonight and try my luck at getting some photos of Emma and Logan. Very nice people on set.

  260. Ive been sitting at blade runners and driving round the church today, havent really seen anyone…But theres a girl in a blue sweatshirt that keeps telling people away from the trucks.

  261. Anyone going to be at Peter Township Highschool tomorrow? I don’t wanna be watching all alone. 🙁 Let me know or follow me on twitter @bushesobrandy

  262. on the way to school this morning, here was a bunch of trailers and busses at blade runners by bethel park high school. they’re filming at bethel presby church.
    you could basically walk up to the busses after school let out cuz I guess they were filming at the church…

    • @lindsay – did your friend get any pics with logan and any impressions of him , the est of the cast, the set, etc. ? hope you could share thanks

  264. wow, funny thing – i’ve been wondering how it is possible for your friend to meet Logan when its 23:14 and then i realized that i’m in europe and you are in america… silly me 😉
    i’m happy for all of you, tell me if you find out if Emma is wearing a wig for shooting
    don’t let mean people get you down, i don’t know why is that but sometimes if someone doesn’t know what to do they decide to be rude, i don’t understand it, i always try to be nice to people.
    it’s like at the concerts – there is always security guard that doesn’t let you stay and wait for artist or even a setlist when obviously noone minds but him. arrrrgghhh!

    • Those people who keep you away or try to protect talent don’t mean any harm, 90 percent of them hate having to be the jerk, but it’s necessary. The talent understands this, the AD’s understand this. Don’t be angry with these people. They’re not just being mean, they’re just doing what they have to.

      • you’re right, but i ment people who are actually rude, not those, who are just doing their jobs. i know that security is important, but you can be polite and protective at the same time, right?

  265. Rhianna’s hair stylist tweeted something about meeting Emma today. I would bet she gave Emma extensions rather than a wig. Her hair is long enough now

      • i thought that they weren’t going to be there until after june 10th because peters township doesn’t graduate until then

        • that’s what i read too last week but some students have been tweeting that crews are starting to set up etc and that they’re filming this week. but then again it may just technical preps.

          a possible location would be an Eat n Park. the daughter of a restaurant owner said they’re fillming in one of her dad’s restos. could be an eat n park branch in USC. Chbosky said before that the resto mentioned in the book called the big boy is actually code for eat n park

            • Big Boy used to be an actual restaurant – there was one across from where the Galleria is – I think it’s some sort of coffee shop now. But it was the same kind of restaurant as Eat ‘N Park, so it would make sense if they film at E&P since Big Boy isn’t around anymore.

              I called Nancy Mosser casting today to ask if they had an availability for being an extra, and they said they were only looking for people who appear to be in high school right now, so I’m guessing they’ll be doing school scenes soon.

                • Well, you have to be at least 18, but they want people who LOOK like they’re in high school. I’m 28, and I feel like I look young enough, but she asked my age and then just said, “oh, we’re looking for high-school aged right now.” But if you want to check it out anyway, you can go to their facebook page, Mosser Casting, and also their website, mossercasting.com to register. Then they’ll have you in their database and you’ll get e-mails if something fits your description.

  273. Johnny and Emma were caught working-out yesterday morning by a photographer. The cast look like they really like each other.

  274. my son is a emma watson fan he is 11 years old and has a severe cancer but in the next few days are good for him to be out in public areas and I was wandering if anyone had a tip on a location of filming. He would like to see the set and maybe the actress
    thanks

  275. Clif
    they are rumored to be filming at Peters high school today and tomorrow in the evenings. Kings restaurant is closed Friday for filming.

  278. I was at the set yesterday at the Bethel Park church, I got there around 6pm and all the actors had left by then. I think I just missed them. The other fans were talking about how they met Logan and Nina just an hour before I got there. Then I went to the mall and when I got home Nina tweeted something about a mall, so I missed them again. 🙁
    I’m going to go to the set Friday, I wanna meet Nina and Emma so bad, and anybody else would be awesome too. 🙂 I was really bummed yesterday.

  280. Hoping it will be offical if they r filming at kings Friday i’m soo going I know next week they will be at Potomac ave in dormont I load video of the set in Bethel Park on you tube

  281. Filming today @ tomorrow (5:17 & 5/18) at Peters Twshp High School in McMurray a suburb of Pittsburgh from 3 pm to 3 am

  282. has anyone spotted dylan mcdermott on set yet if so please reply back thanks i’m such a big fan of dylan mcdermott he’s so dreamy

  283. I’ve been sitting at Peters high school, doesnt seem like alot is going on… but around 9:20ish things started picking up a little.

    • FYI: according to follow perks, not sure if they posted here yet but,
      “filming continues at peters township high school for #perks, filming after school, logan and rudd will be there, no Emma Watson today”

      so it sounds like it will be a while before filming actually starts today….

  284. It’s now 100% true that they will be using the kings restaurant in USC on Friday there already 2 movie trailers sitting over there

    • Awesome, does anyone know the times? I’ll be there.
      Also, Nina is done filming for a while? That sucks, I wanted to meet her the most.

        • I think Nina’s in NYC as of yesterday, there are pics of her with Ian, dunno why she would come back so soon. and she does play the sister, who wouldnt be in those scenes

        • Do you know how long Logan will be in Pittsburgh for? I heard some people say they will be filmimg here until June 10th, but won’t be staying here, that they’ll be going back and forth. If you know anything about where they will be filming tomorrow, May 20th, please fill me in. Thank you!♥

    • I haven’t read the book yet either, I just know the gaurd said that as far as he knows they will all be around Friday at Kings. I do know tho, from other pass books into movies they change so much, So im not sure.

  286. If my memory serves me right, there is only one or two occasions that Mary Elizabeth goes to Big Boy. It’s usually Sam, Patrick, and Charlie. I would assume they’d try to get all of the diner filming done in one day so there’s a chance Mae will be there

  288. Not 100% sure about this, but they may be filming overnight on Friday at King’s – saw on the casting page that someone posted she would be there for the “overnighter” on Friday.

  292. I was at the kings in USC today, and they’re closed Thursday-Saturday due to filming so I would definitely go there if you wanna see stuff…

  293. did anybody saw dylan mcdermott on set today i haven’t seen any photos of him on the set yet if so please reply back thanks

  302. Just exchanged some tweets with OLV. We are not 100% sure about the East Liberty tip. It doesn’t seem valid. Kings seems the best way to go. However, if you live in or near East Liberty, please keep your eyes open just in case. Thanks!!

  310. They are most definitely on S. Winebiddle by the Waldorf school. I live right across the street from there and a huge movie truck Is in my parking spot. And security is everywhere.

  311. I went by Kings today… I’m pretty sure they are closed…and you can see ladders and people doing things inside.

  317. I did not see Dylan Mcdermott on set tonight. It was a party scene. He wouldn’t be there. Follow @katewalsh on Twitter. He will come back to film more scenes when Kate does.

  320. USC patch website confirm the filming will be going on at the kings restaurant in USC from set up thur 2pm then filming start Friday till Saturday 5pm

  325. Definitely they were filming last night (5/19) in East Liberty on Penn.

    There are also tons of movie trucks based at the corner of Aiken & Baum (across from the Marriott).

    5th Ave in Shadyside was shut down yesterday for several hours around the Mansions on 5th – does anyone know if this was b/c of the movie? Traffic was a nightmare!

  328. My mom said she saw stuff being set up on Penn again this morning on her way to work. Perhaps finishing up scenes there before heading to Kings tonight? Don’t know if it’d be worth it to head there by this point though. Thoughts?

  329. I dont think there has been any major action going on at Kings yet. They aren’t supposed to start doing anything down there until 4 p.m., I think.

    If you live fairly close to Penn (and I guess you do b/c your mom passed it on her way to work), then you should check it out. That’s generally the best strategy for trying to find movie sets. If you live close to a place that is a possible shooting location, check it out ASAP. If you live farther away, wait for confirmation/pictures before you try to see the actors on set.

    • I drove by penn around 4pm, and they were packing everything up, and no one was really around. The truck was definetly Wallflower LLC though.

  330. I read the Kings article may be wrong. Followperks said a security guard said a commercial is being filmed there not POBAW.

  332. The most recent comment from FollowPerks on twitter, is that they are planning on going to Kings today at 5 p.m. However they usually start late..so you probably won’t see anything until 7.

    • Around midnight, I see about 15 fans watching them shoot an outside scene in a cordoned off area. I guess they are still putting up with the onlookers.

  336. Please don’t start to stalk the Set every Day and that much.The Team want’s to film in Peace and in Time.The Actors doesn’t have Time forever.Logan will start filming Percy in Summer,Emma must go back in June.

    and Fans can be disturbing,I’m not suprised they send some Fans away already,from what I heard

    • I was at King’s last night and everyone was very well-behaved. No one was disruptive except for some people driving by in their cars and yelling out Emma’s name. The only request was to turn off the flash mode on our cameras. Other than that, we are a small community and have never had a film done here so naturally the curiosity has gotten the better of us. If the idea is to shoo the crowds away, the police would’ve been in full force since they are just down the road from this particular set. They were not, and only drove by a few times to check on everyone. I take offense at being referred to as a stalker since I find the process of filming very interesting and wanted to see for myself. We are a friendly people here in Pittsburgh and trust me, will obey the wishes of all involved with this movie.

  337. @Sandra
    1) That’s kind of the point of this website
    2) Most people commenting on this site are aware of & respect the wishes of the security team,crew, cast, etc.
    3) If you have any questions /concerns about this, I suggest you contact the olv admin directly via Twitter or email.

  338. Was at kings set 2nite there where lots of lil teen girls there hoping Emma would come sign autographs but she really just wanted 2 work but around 11:30 Johnny came out 2 said hi 2 the fans video of base camp & kings being post on YouTube dj2k6

    • So Emma didn’t sign autographs until 9am? wow. I was there since 8pm last night, and stayed til about 11pm. Got to see Emma and Logan filming a bit, but nobody came over.
      The crowd was huge though, it’s probably best for there to be much smaller crowds if you actualy wanna meet them.

      • i was there yesterday too but kdka was there so they stayed away… she came out to leave and waved at us went to the van waved again disappeared behind it then popped back out and came up to us there were 8 people there signed our stuff and talked to us for about 10 mins then said she was tired and want to go to sleep said goodbye and got in the van

  341. The theory about small crowds isn’t necessarily true. I was in a very small crowd on 5/19 in Friendship but none of the actors came across the street to visit us. Most of the time it was just 2 of us standing there. Only 2! Crowd size was between 2-10 that evening. That’s pretty small.

  342. @Niki

    Small Crowd Does Help, Larger Crowds are more intimidating, you also have to factor in other things like, how busy they are, how tired they are, their security, weather, and other things.

    a small group is good for a few quick autographs, which would only take a minute or two, a large group could take quite a while to make everyone happy…. if she has to leave in the middle of a large group she would have to leave some people disappointed…. which they like to avoid.

    They are also more likely to approach people if they have someone with me….security or a pa

  343. Medium to large crowds will catch their attention at least. When it was just the two of us standing there, I wondered if they knew we were fans or we were just curious people that lived nearby. Also they’re too busy to do autographs every day, especially Logan & Emma, but if they pick a day to go out and sign autographs with a large crowd, they know they can satisfy more people at one time. A small crowd doesn’t make it worth it for them to come out. I think they did it in the beginning to get some publicity. Taylor Lautner signed autographs when a few hundred people came out to visit the Abduction set. I do understand that there are many factors this could influence their decision to come out like you said: weather, etc.

  344. I was at the kings yesterday.
    the base camp is set up at st. Louis school and the dressing tents are behind the funeral home next to kings, some lady I charge took me and my friends back there to watch and my friends met Logan again.

  346. Hey!! I was at kings yesturday which turned into today till 6am lol I just missed her but I met the director who is also the author of the book and I got to see them film all night that was super cool!!! I think its so fun that we get to see what movie magic is!! Anyways, does anyone know where they will be headed to next?!?

  348. So I was just told that Emma Watson is at the carmike 10 by south hills mall she is seeing bridesmaids going be here 4 maybe another 40 mins

  351. does anybody know when dylan mcdermott goes back to pittsburgh the same time when kate walsh does if you know please reply back thanks

  353. @Sandra a friend & I were leaving the mall around 6 & we were between the movie theater & Jared’s. I saw her on the sidewalk. We were pretty close so I said hi & welcome 2 bethel park . She said thanks

  354. Hey does anyone know where they are going to be filming on Monday and if Emma is going to be filming?

    Thank you so much!

  355. They are supposed to be filming inside the Hollywood theater in Dormont from Monday May 23- June 8. Then Peters township high school after that until June 29, I believe.

  356. Where did you get that information? it doesn’t match my sources…..

    waiting on confirmation before i post next weeks locations

  363. Kate Walsh just tweeted that she is back in Pittsburgh. I don’t know why she would have to come back so soon. I’m going to check out Dormont tomorrow evening.

  364. is dylan mcdermott back in pittsburgh yet if so please reply back i’m a big fan of his thanks so much

  365. Where will they be filming next? I desperately wanted to go to king’s on friday but it was my senior prom..lol I need to meet Emma!! I have saved every teenvogue cover she has been on and need her to sign one 🙂 Oh well, if anyone hears the next for sure spot let me know!

  368. So, I heard from a friend of a friend, who works on movies in Pittsburgh, that they will not be shooting at the Hollywood theater until Friday. Maybe they needs some time to change the interior and make it look more 90’s? Not really sure where they’re shooting today, but Kate Walsh is back in town, so maybe they’re shooting at the house again? Does somebody want to swing by there today and check on that (if you live close)?

  369. Hey guys, just got this update via Twitter:
    Perks of Being A Wallflower in Pittsburgh RT @FollowPerks @olv Filming on Mill Grove, its all private property, they r keeping every1out

  370. Last night my sister had a school dance at the hotel that Emma is staying at. Emma’s manager came down and said that the students could go up in small groups and meet her and take pictures, but unfortunately their teachers wouldn’t let them. She said there was security guards everywhere and the teachers were escorting them back and forth from the restroom.

  374. I don’t see why they’d be filming the Rocky scenes in Dormont until the extras are there, and the extras are called for next Tuesday, the 31st. Perhaps the theater’s shut down to prep for it, as someone previously suggested. That makes the most sense.

  377. oiiu, Do you know how long she will be there today?!?! I would love to meet her!! If you could please let me know that would be wonderful!!

  378. @Oiiu- Do you have any pictures? That’s very strange. I read the book and I don’t remember any scenes from when Charlies’ mom goes to watch the Rocky Horror Picture show.
    @Ash- are you on twitter?

  379. Just got called to be in the Rocky Horror Scene!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy bejeezus am I excited!! Now what to wear what to wear??

    • Jealous! What days are they filming? I’ve been calling every week to try to get in as an extra and have had no luck so far.

      • I just sent my contact info and a picture to rockyhorrorscene@gmail.com

        They called me and my two brothers. The lady told me they are only filming this scene on Tuesday (5/31) for 12 hours. We have to wear a costume and know the callouts…I’ve been studying!

        Mosser casting just did another casting call for the Rocky Horror scene on their facebook page about 5 hours ago so 5 pm on 5/23 so I am guessing they need more people…send in your stuff. It shouldn’t be hard to get called! I have many flaws haha they must be desperate!!! 🙂

  380. @Niki,
    Yes I have a twitter, I’ve been following kate walsch but havent seen anything pop up in a while… my twitter however is @gigglygirl12 I’m on my way up to the USC area to check things out!

  381. I think there may be some filming going on on Carmell Dr. in Upper St. Clair (off of Hays Rd.) . I live in the area and was out for a walk with my son this afternoon when I saw all kinds of equipment and crew.

  382. Why is Kate at the theater and not filming with everybody else at the house? Crew, cast, and security are at Mill Grove.

  383. I know for a fact that they are not filming at the Hollywood Theater tomorrow. My son and his entire grade has a field trip to the movie theater. I don’t think they would have equipment up there while the kids are there.

  384. Just drive past everything there are trucks and stuff on carmell amd the house have snow and stuff it was really cool it looks like they are still filming on mill grove cause over at ybe other set no one was there but security not sure how long our anything they are filming tonight because everything is really tight can’t really get close to anything…

  385. On an unrelated note – I was checking out the Steeltown/ Still I Rise movie set today. So, if you hear about movie trucks close to the hockey arenas, it’s not for Perks. I remember there was some confusion last summer when Abduction, I am Number Four, and One for the Money were filming at the same time. I posted some videos of the Steeltown set on my YouTube channel: msnikimarie1.

  386. Lerman is the biggest cock I ever met. He never signs. He just waves and says sorry guys. What a dick.

  388. Steel Town: Maggie Gylenhaal, Viola Davis, Holly Hunter, Oscar Isaac. Filming at the Connely Technical Institute up the hill from the Civic Arena. In my videos, the Tech. Institute is on the right. The base camp is down the hill on the left, right behind the Civic arena.

  389. is dylan mcdermott in pittsburgh yet i really want to know i’m such a hughe fan of his i love his work when he was on dark blue

  390. Keeley, Emma Watson signed earlier. Kate Walsh ignored everyone. The only nice people in this movie r Emma mae and nina.

    • other fans have posted on tumblr and tweeted that Logan lerman has talked to fans , signed autographs, and there are even several pics of him with fans on the web. There was even a Pittsbugh based writer who wrote somethign about this check @MichaelBuzzelli article.. But when there are professional autograph seekers around, then actors get wary. Kate Walsh has also met some fans and there are also fan pics of her same as Logan Lerman. So please watch what you post and get your info straight first. Also watch the language, this isn’t ONTD

  394. I wish I was there last night. Emma was mobbed but she kept signing away. She signed everything from cellphones to a girls boob!

  398. I saw Emma Watson shopping at the Market District Giant Eagle in Bethel Park last Saturday. I didn’t realize it definitely was her until I found out she was filming this movie in Pittsburgh.

  399. Ive been busy running around washington rd. the last few days and i always catch emma in a group at El Piazi Oli or w/e that high class pizza place on washington rd. down from mineo’s and the police station.
    Also spotted her @ american eagle and barns and noble in south hills village apparently shes a frequent @ barns and noble as i couldn’t help but ask around.

  402. The Parkway Center Mall is probably serving as a Base camp for Perks because it is very close to the Fort Pitt tunnel. There was an older rumor that they wanted to film some mall scenes at the South Hills Village mall (which they were also using to store vehicles & possible base camp at one point), but weren’t allowed. So, they may also be filming mall scenes at the Parkway center mall today. The base camp scenario seems most likely.

    • I think you are right, I just talked to someone who works on movie and they confirmed filming in tunnel tonight and tomorrow night, that’s what the road closures are for. Also said that there won’t really be much of a place to watch from since its on the highway and that there will be troopers rolling street closures, this is definitely what the article in the paper was about:
      https://www.post-gazette.com/pg/11145/1149096-100.stm
      — this is for Perks

  404. Batman doesn’t start filming until July in Pittsburgh. Right now, filming for Batman is in Glasgow & was recently filming in India. So that is not what the filming signs have been for around town.

  405. Thanks Jamie. Perks of Being a Wallflower uses “LLC” signs & their movie trucks say “leased to Wallflower LLC” on the cab doors. Steel Town (formerly called Still I Rise) with Maggie Gylenhaal uses signs that say “Steel” on them.

  406. Does anyone know if they will still be at Parkway center tomorrow? It is one of my dreams to meet Emma. I would be in debt to anyone who could give me any information.
    Love,
    Lizzie

  408. Does anyone know where and what time they are filming on Friday, i have a friend coming into town to visit and we want to check out the set.

  409. Yeah they have like 12 state troopers doing rolling road blocks like the presidents in town, they are based in parkway center mall but they have a big perimeter set up so you can’t really see anything…. they have the roads blocked off far enough that you can’t see anything from trying to follow them.

    Its Nigh shots all week so i would say Dormont on Tuesay

  410. Emma and the crew will be filming off of Hays Road on Friday. If not, try the highschool (Peters Township)

  411. Here’s a post I just added to FB with a few more locations/dates I just heard about:

    Confirmed ‘Perks of Being A Wallflower’ is filming at the Fort Pitt Tunnel, Pittsburgh overnight tonight and tomorrow night, not a great place to watch since its on a highway.

    Friday filming will likely be at West End Overlook, Mon off, Tues & Wed at the theater in Dormont, PA.

  412. My parents live two streets down from the hays location (I’m about 10 min away).. we ate dinner at my parents last night and drove by the streets we were told they we’re filming and there was fake snow and random props on about 3 or 4 lawns.. neat!

  417. Does anyone know where they’re filming tomorrow. I saw something about west end overlook, but then i hear somewhere else. Also does anyone know what time they would be film at said location?

  418. does anyone know if the West End Overlook is an all day location? bc i cant go out there until after 6 to check it out so i want to know if it is worth the time. thanks

  419. UPDATE: They aren’t filming until after 6 PM, base camp has been moved to the West End Circle so it looks like they will be filming around there somewhere tonight.

    If anyone checks it out, let us know!

  421. i was at the saloon in mount lebanon waiting outside with my friends because emma was there. & we waited for about an hour and a half and when she finally came out, she ran right into her car. didn’t even wave to the like 10 of us standing there. it wasn’t the first time it happened either, she ducked her head when she drove a foot away from us. i know it would be hard being stalked, but her fans are the reason shes famous. she’s a bitch. & we waved to johnny Simmons because were friends with him.

    • And she was also the one that signs/spoke with the fans for a while after a long night of filming too…
      She took a picture with a fan earlier tonight …just because she didn’t wave to you doesn’t meant that she a bitch. Probably the large group of people standing outside of a bar scaring her off, I would be scare too if I were her.

    • Ugh, why do people think the actors have some obligation to wave to them? or to talk to them at all?

      She’s the reason she’s famous, actually, since she’s the one with the talent who does all of the work. She takes the time to acknowledge her fans a lot, but you shouldn’t feel entitled to someone else’s time just because you think you have a hand in their career.

      Geez, if she worked at mcdonalds, do you think she’d be expected to always wave at anyone who ever ate at a mcdonalds because they “pay her salary”? These are people, not circus animals.

    • Urgh see this makes me mad. Emma has been extremely considerate since her arrival here in Pennsylvania towards her fans. She’s taken the time to sign autographs on set and off set and take fan pictures with them at places such as Barns & Noble and Walgreens. Spoke to fans who were waiting around on set after filming an all night shoot. And the one time Emma want’s to clearly go unnoticed she gets called a bitch for it.

      She actually bumped into someone at the bar then apologized and complimented his shirt. The large crowd clearly scared her off, if the girl is seen next to a boy = automatic story that they’re dating.
      And the fact that you waited around outside of a BAR.

  422. Emma has been nothing but considerate to her fans while being in Pittsburgh. She was in a hurry to leave because people don’t know how to behave around her. After reading Awkwards post Emma isn’t the one who came off bitchy. It’s nice to hear Johnny stopped to chat with you since you are a “friend.” Oh wait he didn’t.

  423. Emma wants to go out like a normal person. While I agree that ur best chance of meeting her is when she is out that doesn’t mean that if she chooses to be a normal person once in a while that she is a bitch. Would u like 10 teenage girls standing outside every restraunt u go to. While Emma has taken time to sign and take pictures almost every place she has been approached, that doesn’t mean the one time she doesn’t she is a bitch. She is actually one of the nicest people in this movie.

  425. ahh im so jealous i was just at the cheesecake factory last night! all i wanna do is meet her and ive been trying so hard..so is the next time theyre filming tuesday and wednesday in dormont?

  431. It wasn’t actually logan and johnny. They looked a lot like them though. I took pics of them that I will post when I figure out how. I wish I was dancing on one of them. If u ever need a dance come down to blush and ask for Cindy.

  435. “Unconfirmed report Emma is at her trailer at SHV mall, giving it a 5% proability. Unless she forgot something there.” By @FollowPerks on Twitter

  437. I saw Zane in Friendship a few weeks ago walking around the outside of the building they were filming in. I believe it was a party scene.

  438. It looks like they will use SHV as base camp for the Dormont shooting. It makes sense. There are about a dozen trucks in the parking lot along Rt19 near Ft. Couch right now but no activity.

  439. Boonie – I highly doubt it. SHV has been used just as the storage area on weekends. Plus, the drive time from SHV to Dormont would waste a lot of gas.

    If anything, the trucks will probably move to the base camp tomorrow morning.

  443. Hello Everyone,

    Went through Dormont today to see what was going, There was a real nice guy that gave us a bunch of information.

    They are starting at 12pm tomorrow, Emma Watson and most of the cast will be there, Basecamp is close by at the Football field on Hillside Ave by Dormont park, they are suppose to show up early in the morning, he didn’t say what time

    Hes suppose to be working again tomorrow so get your flirt on and hell tell you what ever you wanna know

    Couldn’t see much from the outside just posters for rocky horror picture show not sure if they were there before or not

    Hope this helps see everyone there tomorrow!!!

    • My friend got in as an extra for the RHPS shoot today. She said it’s supposed to be a 14 hour day. Hope the stars enjoy our 92 degrees weather we’re having in Pittsburgh today, LOL.

    • The school is likely the holding location. I was at the set from about 3.45 to 5.45 today and we met a couple of people there. Most of the people we saw were security and others helping in production that gave us info about the stars. Emma went into the Hollywood Theater in Dormont early this morning, came out for a little around lunch, and was not allowed to sign autographs for her being in costume. Around 4.45, Logan & a few other bigger stars unloaded from a white carrier van. Logan looked back & smiled at the fans before he was rushed into the theater. They were taking food & such in, so I presume they were on break & were going to begin filming outside soon, for we were asked to move back.

  447. I checked out the park and the theater. The park/ football field on Hillside avenue is base camp. They are definitely filming inside the Hollywood theater all day today.

  449. OK thanks, that makes sense! Just wanted to make sure there weren’t 2 locations, if anyone has any pics of them filming, let me know, they’re doing some exteriors there too aren’t they?

    @Peter- they will be there tomorrow too

  456. I check out the area around 1am 2nite they were moving cast & crew out 4 the nite but I have a friend who barten at breakers when I stop in there there were a few crew having a few drinks & early Johnny was in there

  459. Being an extra for the rocky scenes was one of the best experiences of my life. So much fun, even though it was an extremely long, tiring day and they gave us awful food in an unbearably hot room lol. I had to be in the theater 90% of the time as the first few rows were needed for all shots. Between takes everyone would interact with as and were all genuinely nice, funny, and down-to-earth. Overall a really great experience and I’m not allowed to divulge any info about the scenes, but it’s going to be awesome 🙂

  460. Did anyone get any pics yesterday, saw a bunch of them on one of the gossip sites, looks like Mae was there too yesterday

    • Yesterday was literally all day, 1 to 1. I heard today is a considerably shorter shoot. Not sure exact times though.

  462. Anyone who was an extra on the RHPS set yesterday, I know you’re not allowed to mention anything that was filmed but how did the cast interact yesterday between takes and such? And who out of the cast was there?

    Mae, Johnny, the un announced actor for Craig or Bob even? I wonder why they haven’t announced who’s playing Craig or Bob yet, weird.

    • The whole cast was very funny, interactive with us (especially in the front, as that’s where they were haha), nice and down-to-earth. I seriously can’t say enough about how great they all were. Mae, Emma, Logan, Ezra, Johnny, whoever’s playing Alice(don’t know her name!) and 2 actors I didn’t know were present, one of which was most likely the Craig.

  466. Thinking about going tomorrow to attempt to see them film. Is Kate Walsh still there? What is the best time to go to see them? Are they still filming at the Hollywood Theater?? If not where will they be…
    Thanks!!

  467. HELLO!! If anyone has pictures from Tuesday’s filming at the Hollywood Theater could you post me a link or tweet me (bushesobrandy). I was an extra and I’m curious to see if I was in any of the pictures!

    If you saw extra’s walking I was in all black in a red petticoat and a silver belt. Brown hair, a little plump (lol!!)

    Thanks guys! Filming was awesome. Cannot divulge a bunch of details but the RH scene’s are going to be freaking awesome and very funny!!

  470. I posted yesterday that they are filming in Upper St. Clair but sorry, I don’t have a more exact address. Maybe someone can go scouting around if they have time today?

  471. Emma spotted in Deerfield a few minutes ago (supposedly). It is a neighborhood in Upper St. Clair near the intersection of Washington rd. (Route 19) and Boyce road, I think.

  473. Just went to Deerfield and they r filming there. We saw Logan and some of the other cast. Everyone basically except Emma. A woman working there said she things they are there for the next 6 days.

  476. Btw they would not sign any autographs or cone over to anyone. They just waved and screamed hello. Just wanted to point that out

  477. They’re on Merryoak Lane in Deerfield till 3:00. I was told they are shooting in the game room. It’s the Georgian on the right with the governor’s drive.

    • They are supposedly going to be filming at Deerfield Manor till 2 o’clock in the morning. Thats what I hear from some of my friends who live there.

  480. Heey!
    Could anyone who is going to the set share some pics with us?
    I’d love to finally see the actors in character (not dressed up for Rocky Horror). I’m especially excited to see Ezra as Patrick.

    Thanks to everyone who keeps all the people updated who can’t go to the set and shares experiences/pics with us!!!!

  486. They will be filming at Peters township high school for a few days sometime in the period of June 13-June 29. Not sure of exact filming days.

  487. hey guys,
    i uploaded my pictures/video from my trip to Pittsburgh, and wrote a not-so-brief description of my time on set, so if you’re interested, check it out on my tumblr. (there is some ersonal stuff in the vieo, but there’s also some footage from the set and other places they filmed, so it might be interesting for you! haha)
    http://www.meganwhitman.tumblr.com

    PS, some people on tumblr think Im Mae Whitman hahah i found that pretty funny

    • Heey Megan!
      I read that article of yours on your blog. OMG!!! I’m so jealous but also glad you got to experience all that 🙂 I wish I could just go to Pittsburgh for a few days… Thank you so much for sharing all this with us!
      I’d love to watch the video you made too but it says I can’t because of the facebook privacy settings. Is there any possibility I can watch it anyways? Did you post it on Youtube or something?
      And could you also tell us more about Ezra please? I think he’s pretty cool and a great actor but never got to meet him. What is he like?

      • Sorry about the video thing…I didn’t realize it would be private. I uploaded it to youtube and then reuploaded it on my blog, so hopefully now you all can watch it!
        https://bit.ly/jxgWp5
        Ezra was really goofy. That’s kind of the best way I can describe him haha I didn’t get to talk to him much because our friend Nicole spent the majority of the time talking to him while Paige and I talked to Logan haha but Ezra said bye to us when they both walked away…so that’s really the only bit of talking to him I got to do haha but i can tell you he is very silly. He would dance around on set and just yell funny things to the fans like “GUYS! Im NOT Emma Watson!” hahaha it was just so random and funny. He was funny. Heopfully that gives you a litle bit of info on Ezra! Sorry I don’t have more haha

        • thanks for reposting the video.it’s great that you also went to the other locations for the filming like King’s and the fort pitt tunnel. I now have a better idea of the tunnel and how you see downtown as you exit like in the book. And Logan Lerman plays the ukelele aside from guitar and piano! that’s cool and kinda funny at the same time

  488. Thanks so much for reposting the video and all the additional info about Ezra, Megan!!!

    Now I’m even more jealous haha !

  489. Hi guys, does anyone know where they will be filming the rest of “Perks”? I know for a fact that they are through with filming in all of the townships near Pittsburgh and that they’re wrapping it up by filming downtown, but I haven’t heard where exactly downtown. If anyone has any information at all, I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much! 🙂

  490. They will be filming at Peters Twonship High School stadium after graduation and they are filming in a USC neighborhood this week.

  491. Has anyone spotted Paul Rudd or know where to best place might be to catch a glimpse? I just heard he signed on for this movie!

  492. Are we sure they aren’t filming at 2671 Merryoak Ln, Upper St Clair, PA again today? I thought they were going to be there for several days?
    Can anyone check it out maybe?

  493. Does anyone know what time they will be filming on Maryoak this week? Also, I heard about an autograph session either Tuesday or Wednesday. Can anyone confirm this?

  494. Does anyone know where in Pittsburgh they’re filming this month? My dad has to go there on business and I’m about 10 seconds away from hopping in the car with him and doing some serious creeping around to find Emma Watson and Nina Dobrev.

  496. Supposedly Emma & Johnny Simmons are a “thing” now. She brought Johnny with her to the MTV Movie Awards and there is a maybe kissing pic of them. I think it’s cute and if they are dating all the best to them.

    Emma also mentioned Perks in her interview and said there is 3 weeks left of filming and she’s having the time of her life.

  497. So, Emma is going to be at the 2671 Merryoak Ln, Upper St Clair, PA location today, correct? My friend and I are about an hour away and we would love even just an autograph! Perks is one of my favorite books of all time and Emma is my favorite actress, it would make my day!

    • It’s definitely him in the picture – but is that a kiss or are they standing there talking and she blinked? LOL.

      She seems cool and had been awesome to fans on the set so I wish her happiness no matter what.

  499. Does anyone think that Johnny Simmons looks like a young David Johansen aka Buster Poindexter? Google if you don’t know him.

  500. So does anyone think they’ll be filming at the school on friday? or is that too early? now that I think about it, wasn’t that the day for graduation? What’s going on friday?

  501. Logan posted a load of pictures on his Twitter today and he’s still going. He’s doing most of the cast. His Twitter is @LoganLerman.

  506. Went to the set, saw Emma. They’re at 2671 Merryoak Lane Upper Saint Clair, and they’ll be there again tomorrow. 🙂 Hope that helps anyone whose wondering! 🙂

    • Hey if you go, look for the white vans that drive the cast around. Ask for Frank. really nice guy, he got Emma to sign my yearbook

  509. Anyone know what time they’re scheduled to start today? Or more specifically, when Emma is supposed to be on set? lol

  510. Unconfirmed report from someone who works at Point Park University Downtown that there is filming for Perks in Patterson Hall on Third Avenue. To check it out, I just walked around and saw the whole street blocked off with “Location” written on the sawhorses; there are some rental cars parked on the street in between the saw horses, and there are “No Parking” signs on every meter in that block on Third Avenue (between Wood Street and Stanwix Street) for June 8 and June 9. Ruth’s Chris restaurant in PPG Place (on Third Avenue) is closed for filming today; there is a sign in front of it announcing that, the windows are all covered with black material on the outside, and there are carts of movie lights sitting outside, with power cables running all over the sidewalk. Guys in “SECURITY” black T-Shirts are ringing the building on every corner, with PPG Place plainclothes security closer to the building itself.

    • I think the filming at Point Park is for Steel Town. They had a casting call for extras for a fine dining scene today, which makes sense if Ruth’s Chris is closed.

      • Thanks—not sure what is up with Point Park University rumor, however, as the street closures are right alongside the university. Ruth’s Chris is aabout a block farther on.

        • My fault. there was a “to set” sign that drove through pt park to station square. most bizarre route possible. some pt park fan picked up on my tweet.

  511. got called yesterday to be an extra in a sadie hawkins dance scene on tuesday june 14th. anyone know where this might be? i really would like to know if i have to take a $100 cab ride there.

    Hello!! We will be shooting a Homecoming/Sadie Hawkins Dance scene on Tuesday, June 14. It won’t start before 10am. Typical 12-14 hours in the Upper St. Clair area. Please call us to let us know if you want to be booked. DO NOT EMAIL!! If you were in the Craig’s Loft scene, we can not use you for this scene. Thanks!

  513. Here is what they don’t want you to know

    When they yell “rolling” start screaming for autographs.

    They will have two options, call the police or give you what you want. Since its a public place the police can’t really stop you, worse case scenario they ask you to leave.

    Its easier, cheaper and faster to satisfy your needs caue they burn money when the noise stops them 100’s per minute

  514. Well, that’s horrible advice. If we want to keep the movies coming to Pittsburgh, then we should be respectful of the cast, crew, security, etc.

  515. “Pro tip” huh? That’s honestly the dumbest advice I’ve ever heard. It’s completely disrespectful and would likely produce the opposite result. Pretty sure asking you to leave would be the most likely scenario, not worst case. And they’re on a very tight schedule with this movie, with such a short shooting time, and every moment is important. All-around that is an awful thing to suggest.

    • You can make a free talent profile at mossercasting.com and they may contact you when you fit a description. But, I haven’t even done that and I’m going for my second time next week just by watching their posts on the Mosser Casting facebook and then calling the office 🙂

  517. I got just one thing to say. I think we won’t get as many autographs now that the toddlers are out of school. The toddlers have to learn that if you don’t behave the actors won’t come over, wave, or acknowledge you and it ruins it for everybody. Rant over.

  518. So if you want to get an autograph on this film here is a tip.
    1. Be quiet when they say “Rolling”
    2. Be Polite and the crew will let you hang out.
    3. If all else fails politely speak to a crew member.
    4. Remember that the shooting crew understands your excitement, but they all have a job to do.
    5.Be proud that they are shooting another great feature in the Pittsburgh area.

    BTW: All the kids have been so nice when a chance comes to meet and greet the stars. keep it up and the next location could be your chance to have your moment with them.

  520. Tried to be an extra but I’m 21 (over 20) and they won’t let me =(…any ideas where they are shooting tomorrow?

  523. So Monday and Tuesday (the 13th and 14th) they’re supposed to be at Peters High correct? And does anyone know what the best times to get an autograph might be? I’ve been to the set 3 days in a row with no luck yet. 🙁 And it’s about an hour and a half drive each day for me. :\

  524. I would recommend staying until filming is done for the day. At 2am last night, Emma pulled her car over to us on her way out! She was so kind and signed autographs for the six of us! (I blogged about all of the details at http://www.lishylishy.blogspot.com) There’s def a better chance when the stars are not on the clock and not being rushed my the crew! It is also important to be extremely polite and respectful, def helps your case.

  526. So guys, I’m in Pittsburgh at a hotel 10 miles away from where they’re filming tonight. I’m leaving tomorrow at four in the morning but no one who’s with me will go to the se tonight. I can’t go by myself so does anyone have an idea on how I ask them (for the umpteenth time) to go with me an try to meet Emma and everyone?

  527. Are they filming tonight (Friday June 10th)?

    Did they have Thursday night off of Filming? Emma was said to have been at a concert in Pittsburgh last night.

  529. Sooo, would any of you set stalkers mind having some company? I would love to get the chance to meet Emma Watson, but I’m new to this whole thing. Plus I don’t have a car. I live close to Upper St. Clair, but not close enough to walk. It would be tragic if I missed this opportunity…

  533. Does anyone know where they are going to be on Friday? I’m going down on Friday and if anyone knows please tell me! Will they be at Saint Peters high school or Upper St. Clair?

  534. Just curious – has anyone been up to the Hollow Tree set? Have they been letting people stand off to the side somewhere?

  538. Yeah I went up earlier. They quit early today and they were moving to saint peters high in canonsburg for the next few days. Emma is staying at the crown plaza. She Drives a silver prius with Rhode island plates.

  540. I had heard they were moving to the school today but also heard they may change their plans, if anyone checks out the school today please us know for sure that they are filming, thanks!

  545. I’m guessing they may be shooting at one of the houses later in the week since the mom, dad and sister (aka Kate, Dylan and Nina) are headed back to Pittsburgh.

  546. Does anyone know specifically where they will be tomorrow or days after? I am far from Pittsburgh and can get a ride but only if I know for sure where, and I can only go one day so I want the best chance.

  547. Hey, anyone know the scoop on when and where they are filming, I might swing by PGH tomorrow and I’m just curious?!

  550. If anyone can confirm where they are today, I’d appreciate it! : ) Some friends and I want to swing by sometime today.

      • Emma’s in Dallas, TX with Johnny this weekend meeting his family and hanging out. They left on Wednesday and will be back on set next week.

        That’s how much they are not dating I guess.

        • People on set have been very protective of Emma and Johnny because they are both really great people and deserve privacy. There are also signed agreements in place.

          However, Emma messed up by taking him to the MTV Awards if she wanted to keep things under wraps as that’s when it started to get out and then finally hit the press.

          I can understand why she had her reps deny it – but no one believes star’s press reps anyway.

          For you Emma fans – Johnny is a really cool guy. A genuinely nice person. Emma found a great guy.

            • I don’t give much in these Rumours anyway.It’s everytime the same.Emma goes out with a Man a few Times and everyone thinks they are a Couple and Emma can’t be Friend with a Man.Her Rep’s didn’t really lie in the Past,so dunno

  558. Went to Mayview tonight about 8:00 pm. There was no one there. No trucks, lights or anything like there has been at the other locations.

  560. “Mayview Hospital” is tha name of the set (location in the script)

    Filming is actually taking place at the West Penn Hospital in East liberty/Friendship

    • Um hey, like Emma and I are kind of married, and it would be nice if you stopped creeping on her. thanks bitchez

  568. I made a mistake they are not filming. The whole casts will be doing a photo shoot for the movie at a photo studio on the south side by the cheesecake factory & movie theater early today June 18 2012

  571. The Peters Township High School parking lot is full of trailers and equipment, seems as though they will be starting filming there on Monday!

  573. An extra said Emma has a good accent. If her British accent ever comes through they do another take and she fixes it. It’s different hearing her with an American accent.

  574. Does anyone know when they’re done filming? I leave in the area and I really want to see Emma! This would be great help. I live in Pittsburgh too!
    I just need a concrete direction to go and see! Please and thank you guys.

  579. I was down at the set yesterday and 2 security guards started making racist remarks towards me. They laughed at us, swore at us, and poked holes in our photos. They used basically every racist comment you could think of. And the worst part was I had my 10 year old daughter with me and she now thinks it is acceptable to call people the N word and to make fun of the fact that our mother had died last year in a gang fight. If the security company is reading this PLEASE I BEG YOU to fire the one security guard with a brown beard and the other security guard who was doing security at the base camp yesterday. They left scars that will never be removed due to how horrific that day was for me and my children.
    Sincerely,
    Very disappointed fan

    • Perks fan scared for life,
      I NEVER received a phone call regarding this type of behavior regarding any of my guards. I will tell you that I will not, without due process, fire anyone based on what I read on an open forum written anonymously over the internet. If you want to contact me, I am the Director of Operations, and willing to discuss this issue with you any time. My phone and cell phone are prominently displayed on our website, please feel free to use it. It is situations like this that go unreported to those that handle the complaints that give any profession a bad name. There are bad apples in all jobs and without proper reporting of inappropriate behavior, they will stay there.
      Sincerely,
      Security Company

  580. All the people who post comment everyday about these no name looser actors like johnny??who and ezra miller? Logan lerman a 1 movie who!!!a definate stonner ezra too its true emma watson looks like a boy!and everyone in perks of being a wallflower can fall into a sharks mouth!!!

  581. Dear Juice,
    I very much agree. These idiots are lucky people even want their autographs. The security down there is just a bunch of fat losers who haven’t had a date in 10 years and the power of being a security guard at a low budget movie that no one has ever heard of goes to their head. And to the person who they made racist remarks to, I agree they should be fired. I will also be disappointed if they aren’t.

    • @Disapointed Fan & @juice
      I really don’t understand you guys. First of all, I cannot grasp more of your message, juice, other than that you don’t like the cast. At least Disapointed Fan wrote sentences who make sense…
      Now, why do you think the cast is a bunch of “no name looser actors”? Because they haven’t played in a lot of well known movies? Well, that’s not true for Emma at least. Harry Potter, the books as well as the movies are very well known. But apart from that, since when do you define an actor’s acting skills by the popularity of his movies? I can’t talk about Logan a lot but I think Emma is quite a decent actress and Ezra is one of the most talented young actors I’ve seen in a long time.
      I mean, I’m not all happy with the whole cast but I’m not all disappointed either.
      The next time you badmouth somebody it would be nice if you gave real reasons why you don’t like them.

  582. @perksfanscaredforlife
    I would be outraged if those people were not fired immediately. If the security company is reading this PLEASE fire them. I wasnt even there but the amount of anger that I feel is unparalleled by anything. What kind of message would it be sending to our kids if these people werent fired!

  583. As a fellow black mother I agree that these security people should be fired. It would be the travesty of the century if these people were not fired IMMEDIATELY!

  584. I cannot believe that that happened! There are little kids out there and for them to be using that kind of language is UNACCEPTABLE! PLEASE BRING THESE PEOPLE TO JUSTICE BY FIRING THEM! IT WOULD BE HORRIBLE TO LET THESE PEOPLE GO UNPUNISHED!

  585. I didnt want to make a big deal out of it but almost the same thing happened to me when they were in USC at the houses. They told me I had no life and then they made fun of me for being fat. If that isnt bad enough, after that they said that since I am asian I should have brought some math to do. Next, they told me to make them fried rice. I am very upset and I have thought about killing myself multiple times. I had to spend 2500 dollars on a therapist just so I wouldnt kill myself.

    • Sandy,
      I handle the few complaints that we do receive regarding security issues. I am sorry, but I would need additional information in order to initiate reviewing this incident. If you are interested, let me know on this post and I will provide you with a phone number to call and I will take the complaint and handle it immediately.
      Sincerely,
      Security Company

      • The colored icons show when someone changes names and posts. If you look you can see it’s the same person talking to themselves.

  586. If in fact this did happen why did you not get the name of the guard and ask to speak to his supervisor or at the very least get the name of the security company so you could CALL them and not come on here and vent about it? If something doesn’t sound right it usually is not true.

    • I think it’s terrible what happened to you and your daughter. This kind of behaviour is completely inacceptable. I really hope those security guards will be fired immediately, especially because you talked to the company!

    • I find that odd since I never received a phone call and I handle the complaints for the company. I am willing to look into it if you just contact us again and ask for the Director of Operations.
      Thanks

  588. Does anyone know what has been filming in Frick park and the day school in Squirrel hill today? I noticed the “extras parking” , “cast parking”, and “base camp” signs while driving to and from work today. Makes me want to go for a 9-mile trail walk 🙂

  589. Hi Jessica,
    That might be Steel town with Maggie Gyllenhaal, Holly Hunter, etc. It’s about some bad public schools. Movie trucks for Steel town will say “Blue LLC” on the door in small writing. Those trucks are white. You might also see some blue Haddad trucks.
    Also, I’m not sure if this will affect anyone, but I wanted to mention it for traffic reasons… I heard today that President Obama will be speaking at Carnegie Mellon university on Friday. So that will cause some traffic near Squirrel Hill, etc.

    • I think it is for Steel Town they were suppose to be filming school scenes “later this week” but maybe they started early, thanks!

  590. I’ve been an extra on the set twice and everyone has been completely and absolutely 100% friendly. If you are doing something to provoke them…then there will be backlash. Man up people.

  591. Does anyone know what they are doing today (Wednesday) or tomorrow? I know they’re filming a scene in the stadium on Friday.

    • Perks still at peters high school, all indoor today. Sometimes you can see the celebs outside at their trailers. Emma was sitting on the steps of her trailer for a bit yesterday.

  593. I plan on going with a friend to check out the filming at Peters Township High School tomorrow. Would anyone happen to know the best time to go there? Also, is there anyplace where fans can stand off to the side?

    By the way, I have noticed that a lot of people have been asking about when filming will wrap up for this film. Rumor has it that they will be done on June 28th.

  596. This was posted yesterday by MosserCasting a pittsburgh casting agency. Unsure if they are still looking – but if you be there on Friday – give them a call.

    Nancy Mosser Casting
    Perks needs extras for this Friday. Anyone 18 and older can participate. You must be available all day and evening. Call: 412.621.1160

    • I called yesterday at 5:30pm and they said they had already cast all the female roles at 2:30pm, but they were still looking for males. They put my name on a waiting list, though. I’m going to go down to the high school tomorrow just to check everything out.

  597. Today may be Emma Watson’s last day on set. Another extra who spoke to her last night said she was heading back to the UK on Monday.

  599. I am at the high school right now. Nothing really going on that I can see. Anyone know if they are filming inside right now?

  600. It’s 2:45pm and things are starting to pick up. Lots of football players are arriving. Crew people are working in the stadium.

  601. I’m leaving. Nothing is happening. I did find out that extras are supposed to get there at 5pm. I can’t wait that late to see what they are doing, though.

  602. They are filming the football stadium scene at the first part of the book. Where Charlie meets Sam and Patrick for the first time. They will not start filming until it gets dark.

    There is a Perks wrap party this weekend. And then it’s over.

    • The twins names are Julie and Justine S. They’re both amazing inside and out and I’m so glad to be able to call them my friends. This is their first major production, and they’re super talented. I hope they go on to do so much more as actors.

  604. Follow Pittsburgh Films is reporting:
    I heard the wrap party for perks of being a wallflower is at chucky cheese at 3 pm, sunday june 26.

    Maybe the last time to try and see the actors in town.

  606. Follow Pittsburgh Films is reporting:
    Lovely day at Peters township high school looks like a 9am to 9pm day whose joining me?

    Keep in mind they posted the chucky cheese garbage from yesterday so who knows. To much bad info floating around now.

    The high school shooting was mostly closed. No extras are needed. May be tough to see anything.

  610. Emma Watson announced on Twitter that she will be presenting the trailer for Perks at the MTV movie awards pre-show on June 3rd! Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller will be with her.
