Production on Anchorman: The Legend Continues (also known as Anchorman 2 or Teaching Manheim or simply the Untitled Project) is definitely in full swing in Atlanta.
We’ve just learned Anchorman 2 will also be filming at Northside Tavern, off of Howell Mill Road in Atlanta, on Friday, March 8, 2013.
Anchorman 2 will reunite director Adam McKay and the movie’s original cast, including Will Ferrell, after 9 years. The sequel picks up with Ron Burgundy and his news team entering the 24-hours news cycle era in the late 70s.
Filming in Atlanta will continue through the spring. CL Casting is handling all extras casting in Georgia.
On Tuesday, March 5, they will also be filming in downtown Atlanta as well.
**UPDATE**: According to two sources in Atlanta, @AJCBuzz & @Peachyscoop, Anchorman 2 shoot will actually be taking place at The Silver Skillet Restaurant in Atlanta on Friday.

Thanks to Karla for the info!
Are they filming in Atlanta or New Orleans? TMZ says they are in New Orleans. Other sites say both. Can you confirm? We’re definitely trying to plan a trip near filming.
For Anchorman 2? They are definitely in Atlanta.
Not sure about NOLA, but I can confirm 100% that they are filming some in Atlanta.

I work just down the block @ Turner and can confirm that they are shooting at the Silver Skillet today. 3 vintage cars are parked around the corner and the entire parking lot is full of crew and equipment.
thanks!
