Film makers find Crystal Palace Park to be the perfect setting
By Cara Lee
Scenes for Me and Orson Welles were filmed in the park today
Crystal Palace Park was transformed into a bustling film set today, much to the excitement of the park's users and nearby residents.
After speculation mounted about what was happening in the park, it was revealed the historic site was being used to shoot scenes for Me and Orson Welles, which stars A-listers Clare Danes, Ben Chapman and Zac Efron.
A spokesman for CinemaNX, the company making the film, confirmed filming was being carried out around the steps leading up to the site of the old Crystal Palace, which was bombarded with members of the crew and cast, including Zac Efron and Zoe Kazan who play the lead roles. A facade of New York's Mercury Theatre was set up there for the scene.
He said the crew will only be at the site today.
The film, directed by Richard Linklater, is a coming-of-age romantic comedy set in the 1930s about a teenager, played by Zac Efron, who is cast in the Mercury Theatre production of Julius Caesar, directed by a young Orson Welles.
It is due to be released sometime next year.
