The Lookalike, starring Justin Long, Jerry O’Connell, John Corbett, Steven Bauer, and Gina Gershon, began filming in New Orleans today.
The movie has been described as a crime flick reminiscent of True Romance and Get Shorty. The Lookalike follows two men who set out to find a lookalike for Sadie, whose death has jeopardized a major deal. “The crazy search propels an ex-basketball champion, a gossip writer, a coke addict, and a deaf beauty into unlikely romance and a desperate quest to seal the deal.”
After wrapping in New Orleans, The Lookalike will also spend time filming in the Bahamas.
Tomorrow, The Lookalike is filming around Poland Ave and Dauphine St in New Orleans. If you spot The Lookalike filming, let us know about it at olv@onlocationvacationscom!

Actually, Production did fire 9 crew members from the film – and they were picketing while filming was going on at The Columns. It was an unfortunate situation.
