New Jeff Buckley movie starring Penn Badgley begins filming in Brooklyn on Monday

According to a recent community post, courtesy of Brooklyn Heights Blog, it looks Greetings From Tim Buckley, a new movie starring Gossip Girl’s Penn Badgley will be shooting in Brooklyn on August 22- August 25.

According to IMDb the movie “follows the true story of the days leading up to singer-guitarist Jeff Buckley’s eminent 1991 performance at his father’s tribute concert in St. Ann’s Church. Through a romance with a young woman working at the concert, he learns to embrace all of his feelings toward the father who abandoned him – longing, anger, forgiveness, and love. Culminating a cathartic performance of his father’s most famous songs, Jeff’s debut stuns the audience and launches his career as one of the greatest young musicians of his time.”

Now, this project is not to be confused with another Untitled Jeff Buckley Project starring Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark’s Reeve Carney which will “follow Buckley to New York and Memphis as he tries to make a name for himself in the music industry.” That movie will also be shot in NYC, but isn’t expected to go into production until November.

As for next week’s Brooklyn shoot, the following is a list of the streets that will be affected by filming:
