SEEKONK, Mass. (WBZ NewsRadio) — A new J.J. Abrams movie that has been filming throughout Rhode Island over the past week has now made its way to Seekonk.
The Seekonk Police Department posted a photo Sunday morning with actor Glen Powell, saying members of the department served as Powell’s security detail while the movie’s production team filmed scenes at the Seekonk Target on Commerce Way.
Along with Powell, the movie currently titled "Ghostwriter" stars Jenna Ortega, Samuel L. Jackson and Emma Mackey, according to IMDB.
Powell, known for action thrillers “Twisters” and “Top Gun: Maverick,” was spotted filming in Providence last week. Just Jared posted photos of Powell hanging out of an apartment window shirtless and riding a bike while covered in blood.
The actor and his family were also spotted in East Providence, according to Mayor Bob DaSilva.
“I had the pleasure of meeting the parents of Glen Powell, Glen Sr. and Cyndy Powell as well as world famous movie star Glen Powell and Super Star Writer Director J.J. Abrams on the East Bay Bike Path,” DaSilva wrote on Facebook.
