Almost literally bumped into Tracy Morgan coming home from baseball practice with my son. Massive film crew presence on the SW corner of Prospect Park for "the OG" something. They turned a storefront into a "Sex Shop" front with big window displays.
Same Prospect Park West block where Paul Auster's film Smoke was made in 1995 w Harvey Keitel. Also the blocks where Alanis Morrisette's "Hand in my Pocket" video was filmed during our local St. Patrick's Day parade. (Old Irish hood in Windsor Terrace.)
Oh, Google sez "The Last OG" is a series that’s been going since 2018, who knew? (Not me.) Surprised it was such a huge shoot for a tv show. They film a lot around here, but this was more trailers than I’ve seen since they did one of the early Spiderman movies on our street.
Now I’ll have to find that show when it runs, fun to see your nabe. For the Spider-Man movie, I think it was Peter Parker’s girlfriend’s house that was actually a basketball buddy’s stoop. They bought everyone on the block new porch furniture for a consistent look!
And I have to mention that they filmed a lot of My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 nearby and my sister stalked the actor who played Aiden in Sex and the City when he and some others went to a Thai place for lunch and tried to chat him up.
