THR is reporting Matt Damon’s upcoming drama Manchester-by-the-Sea is being rushed into production, but it’s still not clear exactly where.
According to the report, pre-production began on Monday and filming will take place this fall.
The movie follows a plumber living in Boston who is forced to return home after his brother dies where he struggles to raise his nephew while dealing with a secret tragedy in his past.
Though no filming permits have been issued, many Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA locals are speculating the movie will be filmed in their hometown while some Boston news outlets are reporting the movie will be shot in Boston, though it looks like this hasn’t been confirmed either.
