The mini trailer park is set up again in Sloatsburg across from the Post Office. Catering trucks and other production trailers have returned as the NBC sci-fi fantasy show Believe assembles in the area for more semi-rural scenes out on Johnsontown Road.
Over the weekend snow was removed from the parking lot to make way for the camp of RVs that service the show. Back in December 2013, the Believe production team assembled for nearly a week at the old house with barn and horse stables on Johnsontown Road, where the woody terrain created the perfect eerie setting for the show’s supernatural themes: young girl with awesome mental powers of levitation and telekinesis on the run form nefarious government and corporate types.
Believe is scheduled to premiere one week from today, Monday, March 10, on NBC. The show’s co-creator is Alfonso Cuaron, who just grabbed the gold Oscar statue for Best Director for his space movie Gravity.
More Filming Coming Up in Nyack
Bill Demarest at Nyack Free Press reported on the increasing popularity of Nyack and Rockland County as a “setting for film and TV productions.”
According to Demarest, on Friday, HBO/Warner Bros. returned to Nyack’s Memorial Park for more filming of the series The Leftovers,
a new 10-episode series starring Justin Theroux (Wanderlust) and Liv Tyler of The Hobbit that is scheduled to air in June 2014.
The Leftovers filmed in Nyack’s Memorial Park in 2013.
Via Nyack Free Press:
The dark, ominous fantasy revolves around a catastrophic event similar to the Rapture, when more than 100 people from the small, fictional suburban town of Mapleton disappear under mysterious circumstances. Those that remain, including Theroux’s character, Kevin Garvey, the town’s police chief, must rebuild their lives without their neighbors, all the while searching for an explanation for their sudden and disturbing absence.
