Castle 5x01 filming (mild spoilers)
I went down to one of Castle’s filming locations today (interior) and totally didn’t think I could get in but I did, right up to the production line.After taking various photos I was asked by a crew member to stop, so I did. I respect the universe. Unfortunately he asked me to stop BEFORE Stana was about 20 feet in front of me, really energetic before 8 a.m., happy, jumping, and chewing gum while talking to some folks. (No Nathan, BTW, not while I was there anyway.)I only saw one continuous take before I left for work but it was one continuous take featuring Katherine freaking Beckett so I’ll take it.Spoilers and pictures after the cut…So here’s what’s up: Filming was at 506 S. Grand (Biltmore Hotel). The setting appears to be a fundraiser for the reelection of Angela Martin’s gay State Senator husband on The Office/HRG on Heroes, Jack Coleman as Senator William H. Bracken. Beckett was unaccompanied, in a hurry, bypassed the regular security line, stopped to talk briefly to a female police officer, and proceeded. Shot ended there.And that’s pretty much all the plot I have for you. Her stand-in (Lisa?) had a short black jacket on so I was having Always flashbacks and her long dark hair was curled like Beckett’s. Also very pretty. Stana herself was wearing what at a distance appeared to be a knee-length satin dark blue trenchcoat and skinny pants. I realize now that I didn’t look at her shoes but they had be heels or boots with a heel because she was fiercely bouncing through that shot.A PA (or a 2nd 2nd director, maybe) asked me and a lady next to me who didn’t watch the show if we had questions. And I said something like, “Caaan…youuu…introduce me to Stanaaa, butyoucan’t.”And yeah, definitely a no, not during production hours anyway. But,“Do you like working with Stana?”
“I do!”BIG SCOOP, guys.So, pics, did happen:Taxis outside of the hotel entrance Beckett enters throughThe lobby with patriotic balloonsOur loyal director Rob BowmanStana’s stand-in at the doorMore of Stana’s stand-in. Also, more patriotism.I have a clearer shot of the top of the banner but the composition is so embarrassingly off because it was the last shot I took while afore mentioned crew guy was asking me to stop taking pics. This shows more.MonitorsOnce again, homeskillet Rob Bowman
