  1. I saw the restaurant with a tarp around it. I wondered what was being filmed when I saw all the trucks outside. I did not see Dwayne, but there were many people out there. there have been several film groups around this area lately.

    • thanks for confirming they are filming there, someone else also saw signs in Gretna this week…maybe they have 2 locations, or are just setting up at the restaurant?
