With the follow up to Valentine’s Day, New Year’s Eve, scheduled to start shooting in New York City next week, new casting announcements are being made on a daily basis.
The film’s cast already includes Robert De Niro, Ashton Kutcher, Sofia Vergara, Halle Berry, Zac Efron, Jessica Biel, Michelle Pfeiffer, Abigail Breslin, Hilary Swank, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jon Bon Jovi, Seth Meyers, Til Schweiger and Sienna Miller.
This week, news broke that Josh Duhamel has signed on as one of the movie’s leads who is “a hopeless romantic who spends the day trying to get to New York in the hope of getting to a party in order to re-meet a mystery girl from the previous year.” Ice Cube is in talks to play a NYPD cop who is working with Hilary Swank’s character, the director of the Times Square celebration. And Ryan Seacrest will play himself, of course.
Filming is tentatively slated to begin Feb. 1 so stay tuned because we’ll have daily updates about what and where they are shooting. If you spot signs or sets for NYE around NYC, let us know at olv@onlocationvacations.com.
