‘I Hate You, Dad’ filming at Old Everett, MA High School

As we reported earlier today, the Adam Sandler/Andy Samberg father-son comedy I Hate You, Dad begins filming this week in Everett, MA and it looks like they are starting off in the classroom.

The movie began setting up at the Old Everett High School (on Broadway, near Hampton in Everett) over the weekend and will be filming there on Tuesday (6.7), possibly longer though an exact timetable has not been confirmed.

According to one of our readers, John, “they are filming classroom scenes for the new Adam Sandler movie in Everett this week.” He added that they have cast several extras to play students, etc.

It sounds like these scenes may be the same scenes that were to be shot at East Bridgewater High School, though Paramount chose not to shoot there because they were looking for a larger auditorium space.

Though we don’t know for sure who will be on set, we wouldn’t be surprised if Susan Sarandon were involved in the scenes since she plays a teacher who “slept with Sandler’s character when he was 13 years old, with Samberg as the embarrassed progeny.”

In addition to Sarandon, Sandler, and Samberg, Milo Ventimiglia, Leighton Meester, Ian Ziering and Vanilla Ice will also appear in the movie.

If you hear of any other filming locations for I hate You, Dad or spot them filming, send your tips and pics to us at olv@onlocationvacations.com!

Update: Before I was even able to post this, I received 2 additional tips that this is actually Here Comes The Boom filming at this location, not I Hate You, Dad. Apparently, Boom shot here a couple weeks ago and may be returning. I can see that there may be some confusion both ways since both movies are filming under Sandler’s Happy Madison productions. If you can confirm which movie is shooting at the old High School, let us know, thanks!

  1. Hello! As a resident of Everett who can’t make it from one end of the citty to the other right now I can confirm it is Here comes the boom 🙂

  3. Sorry I was in the High School last night. Its Adam Sandlers movie I Hate You Dad. Here Comes the Boom filmed there last month. They changed the inside and out to resemble Somerville Jr. High school the school that will be in the movie where 8th grade Sandler has an affair with his teacher. He was in Everett yesterday and will be there today. I met him.

    • did you happen to get any photos? would be cool to see school transformed or pics of Sandler on set, guessing Susan S. will be there then?
      thanks for the info!!

  4. my son is an extra for I hate you dad and will be in everette tomorrow. ….june 8th..so i am sure its I hate you Dad

  5. Is it possible both are filming in Everett, I just heard they are filming a chase scene on Broadway, but it sounds like the I Hate You Dad filming is just in the school?

    Would it possible for anyone to get photographic proof of who is filming where? 🙂

    • I took a walk over there as I live close by and was able to get a few shots of the school and crew but no one famous. There are production assistants everywhere to move people along if they stop to take photos (myself included). They seem to be cool with letting you watch as long as you aren’t taking pictures.

  6. Susan will not be there. These scenes are set in the 80’s when Adam Sandlers character was in middle school. Yesterday they filmed in rooms 207 and 209 on the second floor. They converted those old classroooms to look like 80s classrooms with old tape players vcrs old desks. etc.
    They redecorated the gym and auditiorium on the 1st floor. Those scenes are being shot tomorrow. Today they are using the facade of the building. There will no major stars in these shots. The gym looks nice with the bulldog emblem on the basketball court. THe halls have fake art work and posters like john for class president and school dance and bake sale friday. No pictures are allowed. I did see some paparazzi with long lense cameras but again no stars.

  7. They are filming both I hate you Dad and Here comes the Boom in Everett, I hate you Dad is being filmed today at the old Everett High School; Adam Sandler is on the set today he was outside with the crew at around 1:15pm.

    Here comes the Boom is being filmed not too far from there, I believe they also used the old Everett High School a few weeks back but at this point they are filming in a house on one of the side streets off of Broadway.

  9. Hey, i was there today while the extras were all outside the school. I saw Adam Sandler a couple times and he came over to say hi. I believe they are doing the I Hate You Dad movie. All the extras were wearing 80s clothing and there was 2 busses and old style cars there also.

  10. OK, thanks to everyone for all of your updates, I think we have it straightened out now! I can see why it was so confusing with both movies filming in town. 🙂

    Yes if anyone has pics to share, you can email them to me at olv@onlocationvacations.com and I can post them for you, thanks so much!

  11. I am a Homecare Nurse and had to walk throught the set and got yelled at.. Oh, well Duty calls, but I was told they are filming day and night in Everett through thurs. In which, I am sure I will be walking throught the set again.. lol

  12. They put in a big sign saying its Somerville Junior High School, and I saw lots of people dressed up with clothes from the past. And part of the street is closed, and I think there is parts of Broadway that they aren’t letting people go by. Someone I know met him, so I am going to try and meet him this week!

  13. I am from Everett and walked down yesterday and i got to be an extra in the movie. it is ” i hate you dad” by Adam Sandler he is in Everett until Thursday.

  14. I live in Malden so it is not to far from me maybe a 5 minute car ride from my house.I drove by there today cause I was going to the post office and I saw the buses out side that said Somerville on them. There is a high school sign out side on the lawn that is a prop that says Somerville High on it and there Is a sign on the building that says Team Spirit. I cant wait for the movie to come out I love Adam Sandler

  15. Adam came out to the back of the Old Everett High School around 5;15 pm tonight. .I lifted My 10 yr Grandaughter on my shoulder and He came right over ,signed Her book and took a pic with Her; Hi fived her and called her Sweetie. He is very nice to the children. They will be there tomorrow.

      • We seen him walking back & forth across broadway, and He waved everytime we yelled Adam. He signed Autographs out on Broadway until the crowd knocked a young girl down. So we stayed in the back of the school. We got there about 3 pm and Saw him many times. He is great.

        • Hello. I am not sure what part you are questioning. I was called for a courthouse scene so I guess it could be outside a courthouse lol. They were looking also for a stenographer….so I am ‘assuming’ it is in the court. This is all I know I get the details first thing tomorrow.

          • Thanks and if you know how long he’ll be there can you tell me i want to meet Adam Sandler to ask him for some advice he’s like a role model .

  30. does anyone know where and if adam is shooting for movie tomoro if so where at can someone let me know me and my kids love his movies

  31. I heard that filming has not started yet but it will be shortly in Stoughton on RT 138. They have a “Hot Tub Mega Mart” store all set up and there are tons of trailers and stuff! So exciting!! Its very close to my house so I’m hoping to catch a glimpse of Adam Sandler in the next few days!!

    • I guess it was last night only! I drove by this morning and they were taking everything down!! I’m surprised because it was quite an elaborate set up for only 1 night of shooting…oh well! Can’t wait to see the movie!! (And I heard Milan Lucic showed up with the Stanley Cup and it will be in the movie as well! Exciting!!)

  34. As you may know they are filming parts of this movie on cape cod. In the town of Dennis where I live we have two little league fields and on one of them they are building a replica Fenway Park. I went to get a look at it today and it is so real looking. It is not finished yet but there is a green monster that is almost as big as the real thing

  36. They made a Fenway replica on my sons baseball field in south Dennis. ( capecod) couldn’t figure out what movie they were filming until I seen him in Yarmouth port

  38. They are filming a wedding scene at The Wychmere Club this morning and my 12 year old and his buddies are all having breakfast with the crew right now. They should be driving their 13 foot Boston Whalers in the background during the wedding scene.

  41. They’ve been filming within a mile of my house (in Hyannis) for the past few days; all of the trailers (wardrobe, catering, etc…) have been parked in closed businesses’ parking lots

  42. They are still here and are parked in the old Ford Garage Car Lot. Also been up at Mid Cape Hardware that has been closed for years.

  43. Was out driving today when I started seeing black-and-yellow signs posted with arrows and the words ”BASE CAMP” and ”I.H.Y.D.” on them. I figured they might be directions to a movie set because they reminded me of the signs I saw back when they were filming ”Furry Vengeance” in my area. Went online to see if any movies with the initials IHYD were filming in the Boston area and sure enough, I found this page.

    The signs ended up leading to the entrance of the Pingree School in South Hamilton, MA.
