Kiki Tree Productions has been setting up scenes around Downtown to film for an upcoming movie, and they will be closing several streets, alleys, and lanes through April 11 to accommodate the filming and further production work. Below is a list of dates and closures. These are subject to change; should that happen, announcements will be made.
“It’s obvious there’s something about Macon-Bibb that is attractive to the film industry, and I know a major part of that is the amazing people we have here and how welcoming we are to visitors,” says Mayor Lester Miller. “Having crews come here time and time again speaks volumes for our community, highlights our buildings and attractions, and provides a shot in the arm for our local economy.”
“This has been a great crew to work with, and it’s been amazing to help them find locations and backgrounds that fit the story they’re trying to tell,” says Aaron Buzza. “We’re getting a lot of great feedback on our Downtown and the people and businesses throughout the area.”
This television filming follows several movies and shows that have filmed in Macon-Bibb, including The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings, Wise Blood, A Trip to Bountiful, The Crazies, Trouble with the Curve, 42, Need For Speed, The Fifth Wave, The Best of Enemies, Zombieland: Double Tap, and Justice on Trial. Several television shows have also filmed here, including Brockmire, The Originals, The Vampire Diaries, Witches of East End, Watchmen, Lovecraft Country, The Go-Big Show, and FLOTUS.
