After a slow winter, the film industry in Pittsburgh, PA is once again heating up as two high profile projects begin filming in the area.
Last week, Out of the Furnace, which was also known as Dust to Dust but now seems to be Out of the Furnace once again, has just started filming in Braddock, PA.
Out of the Furnace stars Christian Bale as an ex-convict attempting to return to society. Casey Affleck, Woody Harrelson, Robert Duvall and Zoe Saldana also star.
Mosser Casting is handling extras casting, check out their Facebook Page for more info.
On Monday, April 23, another A-List project, Promised Land, also begins filming near Pittsburgh through June 4.
The Gus Van Sant- directed project stars Matt Damon as a sales executive who arrives in a small town only to have his whole life called into question. John Krasinski, Frances McDormand, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Hal Holbrook are also set to appear in the film.
One confirmed location for Promised Land is the West Mifflin Middle School on Camp Hollow Road in West Mifflin, PA. They will shoot several scenes at the vacant school at some point during filming.
Extras casting information can be found on the Promised Land Casting Facebook page.
Though it can sometimes be difficult to find exactly where a movie is filming, the Pittsburgh Film Office does sometimes list road closures for filming on their website.
In the past, Pittsburgh fans have shared tips to help track the movies One Shot, The Dark Knight Rises, Abduction and The Perks of Being A Wallflower via our Open Threads so we’re hoping we can duplicate that success with Promised Land and Out of the Furnace! Be on the lookout for more filming locations around Pittsburgh in the coming weeks and discuss the latest sightings with other fans in the comments below!

OK, guys I’ll kick thing off, thanks to @FollowPghFilms, we know Out of the Furnace is filming at at 9th and Talbot in Braddock, PA today…
Also wanted to mention there is a TV series, which will air on Netflix, is also filming in the area. It’s called Hemlock Grove.

I heard a rumor that “Out of the Furnace”/Dust to Dust is filming in Raccoon Creek State Park today. I don’t see anything mentioned on the “park events” section of their website…but a majority of the park is “unavailable” for camping today when I play around with the site “Search Criteria” page for camping. Sections A, B, C, & D are unavailable. Only section E has spots available for camping today. Some of those sections (A-D) support trailers.
Oops. Here’s the website for Raccoon Creek State Park:

Subscribing to updates
Does anyone know of any locations this week in Pittsburgh for filming. Im attending my class reunion and would love to see Matt Damon or Christian Bail while Im in town.
Promised Land is scheduled to start filming tomorrow, probably in the Apollo area. Out of the Furnace will probably continue to film in Braddock. However, I feel like this snowstorm coming into town may delay filming. When will you be in town?
Tuesday morning I really hope the weather cooperates!
Promised Land filming in the Avommore/Apollo area at a bar or restaurant. They put out a request for a piano player for today’s shoot on the “Promised Land Extras” facebook page.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Promised-Land-Extras-2012/332913823423104
There was something going on with Promised Land at Station Square today. Maybe they filmed the piano scene there or that’s where they have an office? Which restaurants in Station Square have a piano? Via @PattyBellMakeup on Twitter.
thanks Niki- did it say specifically it was going to be in a restaurant? could have been a party scene or something just in the station maybe?
I’m not sure what it was. 🙁
Grand Concourse
Were is promiseland today?
Promised Land is supposed to be in Apollo today.
Just drove to Avonmore and New Alexandre what makes you think its Apollo today. Im debating about going to check it out.
Are you still near Avonmore now? Apollo isn’t that far. I heard from someone who has been pretty reliable with info about past film locations (mainly Perks of Being a Wallflower).
–> http://www.twitter.com/FollowPghFilms
Yea I am going to take a look thanks.
Nothing in apollo today.
Hey Jamie-
Wow. That’s weird. I’m sorry for the wild goose chase. Thanks for checking for us. I might go and check on Station Square later today, if the weather is OK.
Slickville popped up as another location for Promised Land.
Out of the Furnace is supposed to be in Braddock again.
They have the crew set up in Slickville at the carnival grounds. Going to check it out later today.
Hey Mel- Did you have any luck?
I did go down and there were a ton of tractor trailers and flat bed trucks. They also had a sign at the firehall for catering. There were a few crew members down there packing up pick up trucks. I lingered around and a man in a SUV came flying in and started telling everyone that they needed to get going that the site is 10 miles down the road. Which is the Apollo location they were filming at that night. There was also a road closed sign at the Walter’s farm where they are using that house and farm for filming. Yesterday all those trucks were set up on route 66 in Washington Township at the firehall. I’m not sure if that area is considered Apollo or not. Yesterday evening they were shooting at a small restaurant in Apollo. A girl I work with drove past and said the restaurant has a sign that it will be closed all week and that there big set lights all over and lots of people.I dont think they are done in Slickville yet…last night there were still some trucks over at the Saint Johns church. I will keep my eye for more siteings!
Here’s the official announcement that Promised Land is filming, but we already figured that out 🙂
https://collider.com/matt-damon-promised-land-filming/161629/
I think the production office for Promised Land is at Station Square. Some interns I follow on Twitter have done some tweets with geotags. Haven’t checked it out myself, yet.
This video made me think of Promised Land (Vimeo):
Sorry! Here it is:

will be filming bar and town hall scenes in a couple weeks for Promised land according to the facebook casting page, anyone know of any town halls around that would fit the scene?
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Promised-Land-Extras-2012/332913823423104
Casting alert! We need to submit pictures for our BAR and TOWN HALL scenes – if you are available to submit (our director is choosing the faces), please send photos and stats ASAP! Please when submitting include your photograph (again) and phone number.

If you can do both the BAR and the TOWN HALL scene put “Bar and Town Hall” scene in the subject line.
Latest location info from @FollowPghFilms (twitter) is that Promised Land is filming on Slate Lick Road in Worthington, Pennsylvania. Very low secuirty there, you can supposedly walk on set.
Latest cast update from Out of the Furnace: They added Willem DaFoe to the cast. That means that he will be coming BACK to the Pittsburgh area to film a movie, after The Clearing (2004) co-starring Robert Redford and Helen Mirren! 🙂
I believe Out of the Furnace will be filming in Koppel, Pa on Tuesday because of this casting call I found on the Nancy Mosser Casting Facebook page:
We are looking for Men to play Steelworkers on Tuesday. It will be an early calltime and last for 12-14 hours. We would also need your trucks, vans, or cars parked in this scene. NO RED OR WHITE VEHICLES.
If you are interested in being booked, please send an email to outofthefurnaceextras@gmail.com that includes a recent picture, your name, age and all contact info. Please also include the color, year, make and model of your vehicle. Write “STEELWORKER” in the subject line. If we are able to use you, we will respond to your email.
Thanks Niki!!
Promised Land base camp is at Worthington fire hall on Slate Lick road. Out of the Furnace base camp is at Braddock fire hall. Via @FollowPghFilms on Twitter.
Anybody know the hotels for the actors? better to get them there instead of the sets. I’m coming down this weekend for something else and am hoping to catch a star or two.
Out of the Furnace base camp is definitely the Braddock fire dept. I am at it now. Lots of Haddad trailers in parking lot. I tried to follow signs up the hill earlier, but came to a dead end. So, didn’t find the set today.
Spotted the FF signs on Purdy Rd. in Burgettstown. Ton of Hadadds trailers & trucks next to the road. Definitely setting up for filming in the woods. Took some photos while they were bringing in the trailers. Will post to my site soon!
Fire dept is on Talbot street. Posting pics o n Twitter. @NikiMarieR
Thanks Niki, looks like they’ll be back again today too., right? thanks!!
looks like Promised Land is back in Slickville. Signs everywhere and looks like they will be filming at the farm and garage…there are wires and set lights everywhere…gonna check it out tonight to see if they are filming.. 🙂
Just found out – They are filming for the next week in Slickville. Tomorrow morning at Walters Farm right off of 819. They will be doing the baseball scene up at the legion on Friday. It is right beside the Walters farm. Lots of trailers and set up. The town hall and bar scene will be from May 15th – May 25th.
thanks so much mel!
They were filming this morning in Slickville. There are cones with signs on them all “down town”. They are also at laufer mine road which is past the beaver run dam. I hate that I am at work while all this awesome stuff is going on right down the road from where I live! darn job!!! haha
Just want to mention – Producer Chris Moore will be speaking at the Hollywood Theater in Dormont after a viewing of The People Speak at 7 p.m. tonight. The People Speak is a documentary film that includes many actors (including Matt Damon ) read portions of historical documents, including the U.S. Constitution. Also, Dormont happens to be one of the locations where scenes from the movie Dogma were filmed.
thanks so much Niki, wonder if Matt will show up!
I went to the Hollywood Theater, Matt wasn’t there. I was really hoping he would be there.
Maybe. It depends on when they wrap filming for today. Slickville is a hike from Dormont.
Are you able to watch any of the filming?

I live very close to Lauffer Mine Rd. in Salem Township. I drive the road everyday. Saw them unloading trucks yesterday and today drove passed and they have a mini festival set up….tents, picnic tables, food vendor, etc. I did some digging on the internet (which is how I made my way here) but I can’t find a date for shooting. It must be within the next day or two, though.
thanks Vicky! Sounds like maybe its for Promised Land? Do you know for sure which project it is?
Vicky did leave a response that for some reason didn’t show up here but here it is:
“Yes it is Promised Land. They are filming today. I tried to drive by this morning but they closed the road. I talked to the traffic control guy. He said they would be there until about 2. Matt Damon was there earlier but wasn’t there as of 9 am when I was there.”
Here’s some additional info a tipster sent us via email:
“promised land film location- Old farm on 2020 Pleasant Valley Road, Murrysvile, PA
Barn was constructed by Amish. House is orginal 1930.”
but there was no indication when or exactly how long they will be filming there …

Bye bye Hemlock Grove. Hello Channing Tatum! 🙂 Foxcatcher supposed to start filming in Pittsburgh in October.
https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/17/mark-ruffalo-foxcatcher-steve-carell_n_1430822.html
Promised Land will be filming in Avonmore and Apollo until beginning of June and then they go back to Cali. to finish filming. This week is the bar scene and next week is the town hall meeting scene. I will be an extra May 23-25 for the town hall scene. Never been one before so I am so nervous!
Hello Mel, do you know where they are filming the bar scene or the town hall meeting?
Bar Scene – I heard it was either Guys Tavern or My Buddys Place. I’m not sure which one it was.
The Town hall scene – when casting called me they said they werent 100% on the location yet.
All I know for sure is that its in Avonmore and Apollo.
Sorry I cant be more help. I will dig around some more and find out for sure the places.
That would be awesome of you, Mel, to take that time to do that!!
Hey Mel, any word on the location of that town hall shoot this week?
Hey! They have the extras parking at Apollo Ridge Football field. They will be shuttling them to the location. I have 2 friends that are extras starting tomorrow…I dont start till Wed.
I am going to ask them where the filming is. Rumor has it though, its at the Tiger Gym…it use to be an old school and has a gymnasium. I’ll find out for sure tomorrow!
Should definitely check out Buddy’s bar in Avonmore.
I haven’t been paying attention to the filming of these two movies. Does anyone know whether either might be doing scenes in Downtown Pittsburgh? Also, whatever happened to “Frank or Francis”? Has it been delayed or canceled?
I doubt either movie will be doing scenes downtown. If they do, there will be some traffic announcements on the news. Frank or Francis has been delayed. Steve Carrell is supposed to film Foxcatcher in Pittsburgh in October.
Hey Niki- did I tell about the update I saw in Production Weekly? They said Frank Or Francis had changed locations and was going to film in German now 🙁
According to casting call they are filming the bar scene through Friday and according to this video (thanks Niki) the bar is located in Avonmore (looks like it won’t be hard to spot) Can anyone go check it out, would love to more info or pics, thanks!
I plan on taking a ride up there on Thursday. If I can get some shots, I will do so and post them.
thanks! def. let us know what you find wither way!
For Promised Land – They already did some scenes in Pittsburgh. It was an upscale restaurant scene. Yes the bar scene is in Avonmore at Buddys bar. They changed a whole street to make it look different…the store fronts are different. I know the salon is now a bakery.

According to @scottady on Twitter-they are filming Out of the Furnace in Independence township tonight (overnight shoot). Independence township includes some of Raccoon creek state park. I guess it will be 1 (or 2) nights there, then probably back to Braddock. They tend to bounce around between locations with this movie!

Yes they finished up shooting today. They only called back about 50 people for tomorrow to finish a scene an actor wasnt able to make it today. I was supposed to be an extra but got a call at midnight saying that they screwed up my call number and I will be in a scene next week. Their phone lines are down…I have no idea where they are going to be next week. Does anyone know or heard any rumors?
any word on filming locations this week?
It looks like they will be shooting (again) more for “Promised Land” on Lauffer Mine Rd., in Salem Township. I’m guessing tomorrow by the looks of things. I took a picture. Will try to post.
yup they are doing the fair scene tomorrow. I will be an extra in it. Cant wait!!
thanks for the info Vicky/ Mel – if you want to post pics and have a problem you can email them to me at olv@onlocationvacations.com thanks!
Hey Mel, is this filming on Lauffner Mine Road in Salem Twp? Whats the call time on the shoot?
Hey Mel, is that on Lauffner Mine Road in Salem Twp? What time do you have to be on set?
Yes Lauffer Mine Road…I believe it is considered Export address. I did have to be there early in the morning but there has been a call time change and I have to call back at midnight. From what they said filming will take place in the morning and most of the day. They warned us it could be a 12 hour day or longer since this is a one day shoot.

Does anyone here know where the actual site of the car crash took place in the movie OUT OF THE FURNACE. I am not able to find any mention about where they actually filmed that scene. It looks like some rural road outside of town, single yellow lane road with two entrances backing out onto it. Thanks a bunch
