Tomorrow, The Amazing Spider-Man will begin filming in New York City for two weeks only.
Spider-Man, which is working under the title Fiona’s Tale, will be filming on Saturday and Sunday around 56th-58th St and 8th Ave/9th Ave in New York City. The No Parking/Permit signs posted along the streets for this weekend’s shoot list the approximate times of filming as 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
In addition to the midtown location, they have also started rehearsing for a big stunt scene which will take place on Monday (5.2) through Wednesday (5.4) in Harlem, around 133rd St and 12th.
If you plan to check out Spider-Man filming in NYC, you can discuss the shoot below or send us an email with any set photos or scoop you may get on the set at olv@onlocationvacations.com!
The movie was already shot in Los Angeles, these additional scenes are only expected to take a week or two to complete.
Also, be on the look out for those Fiona’s Tale signs around town!
[Thanks to all of our tipsters who have sent us info re: Fiona’s Tale too!]
There are casting calls for extras to report to the midtown set asap, so they are probably shooting this morning. The casting director tweeted that he was at work @5am this morning for Fiona’s Tale, so sounds like an early start.
damn. i will get in nyc on 05.05 =\
they will still be filming, chekc back with us for details, these are only the first few days…
I’ve been searching twitter with terms like “spiderman filming” & from what some people are saying, they actually are filming up in harlem. apparently they’re filming overnight, which makes sense as that’s when it’s likely to take place in the movie i think.
are we sure the crew isn’t just lying to us when they say they’re just doing rehearsals?
rehearsals only in Harlem, if you read the psot above they will be filming there M- W, they are in midtwon right now, address in post above
Well some people on twitter have said they saw it doing actual filming overnight at the Harlem location, though I would think they could be mistaken..
I’ve got the next couple of weeks off. Are they still accepting extras?
Central Casting is handling extras but you need to be registered with them to be considered
There’s a sign for Oscorp Industries in front of the building they are filming in, on 8th Ave
“P.P.”s trailer is parked in front of DJ Reynolds Pub and Restaurant

Spiderman: Passed by both sets today.
Harlem location: No filming or rehearsals were being done. Prop NYC bus equipped with roof rigging parked up near the Fairway store with a prop blue colored utility truck reading “New York Power Authority next to it was an abnormal sized camera truck with tall platforms. Looks like Spiderman will be on the top or sides of the bus.
Not sure if they are rehearsing tomorrow.
Seventh Ave @ W 57th ST: Interior filming at co-op building on 7th Avenue. They might be doing exteriors today or tomorrow I am guessing as they had a small camera crane on the sidewalk. Filming here Sunday also.
Found out from security that Emma Stone will probably not be there. They are filming interior today and call time is at 2 PM.
The spotlight is in front of the subway station
There are casting calls for Monday that indicate it will be an overnight shoot.
Casting calls for Sunday, 5/8 indicate that they will be shooting exteriors somewhere in Queens, but no specific location give. People should be on the lookout for signs in Queens this week.
thanks annie!
Also, these photos have been circulating as a Spidey location, but I don’t think it is, anyone know for sure?

There was some filming by 57th St late last night around 1am or later I heard. Just wondering if anyone caught that. I couldn’t make it.
I saw someone leaving the makeup trailer around 8pm yesterday completely covered in a long black hooded jacket and a green face mask, looked like it was a guy (was not Andrew Garfield). Seemed like they were trying to hide who it was maybe, wasn’t sure if it had to do with the late night filming.
thanks webhead, is anyone going tonight? heard security is tight
Looks like pics of the hooded guy have showed up on https://www.pinkisthenewblog.com/2011/05/first-look-rhys-ifans-surfaces-as-the-lizard-on-the-set-of-the-amazing-spider-man/. Still not dure what that is but that guy was in the makeup trailer for a long time. Gonna try to check out the filming in Harlem on Tues night.
Looks like they are definitely shooting on a Saturday thru Wednesday schedule. Casting calls for next week are 5/7 thru 5/11.
thanks annie
I am so damn happy they are done shooting they tied up my street for two weeks straight and i could not park i hope they never come back!
They’re filming Fiona’s Tale in Queens (on my block) from 5/10 – 5/11 between the hours of 6AM and 3AM, respectively. Just googled “Fiona’s Tale” and came across this site and figured I’d post the info. (On Roosevelt Avenue and 59th Street (underneath the 7 Train).
