Ben Affleck shares his love for Boston while filming Live By Night here
Boston’s hometown boy is glad to be back.
Spotted around town multiple times these past few weeks, Ben Affleck is in Boston filming his latest project, Live By Night. The Beantown-based crime drama, starring and directed by Affleck, is set in the Prohibition-era 1920s and tells the story of a prominent police captain’s son who gets caught up working with mobsters.
With an anticipated 2017 release date, the Live By Night production crew has been seen filming in the North End and at the Fairmont Copley Plaza in addition to locations in and around Lawrence. The film first began shooting in Georgia, but it’s clear where Affleck feels the most at home.
On behalf of Boston: Ben, you’re welcome.
