Queen Latifah, Dolly Parton will film ‘Joyful Noise’ in Newnan, GA next month

The new Queen Latifah/Dolly Parton movie Joyful Noise is currently filming in Atlanta but they will spend at least three days shooting in Newnan, GA next month too.

The production company has asked to film scenes at 75 East Broad St on Feb. 16-18. They will also be closing a portion of Thompson Street and Wall Street between Salbide Avenue and East Broad Street on Feb. 18 for filming. In the scene, Dolly Parton’s grandson will be hitchhiking on the side of Thompson Street.

The movie is about two choir members (Parton and Latifah) who have differing opinions about how to win a national choir competition. Things are only complicated when Dolly’s grandson proposes big changes to the choir and falls in love with Queen Latifah’s daughter.

According to AJC, Parton is staying at a private residence in Midtown Atlanta and has already been spotted a few times around town and, as one would expect, she’s been sweet to everyone she’s met.

  1. I actually had the opportunity to host the production crew of this film and they were wonderful. I toured the set and Met Ms. Parton what a rush. I am sure this will be a great show!!!!!!

  2. I heard on J-93 that the movie producer’s were looking for extras on the set of Joyful Noise and to be in Fayetteville, GA on Monday March 14 very early….where, when and what time. I would like to be an extra.

    This can eventually lead them to the courts, which would spend them a
    lot more instead of just hiring a team of financial experts, professionals who would work hard to give
    them the business reports, analysis and assessments they need.
