James Gray’s “Armageddon Time” has wrapped filming in New York City. That’s six weeks of shooting. Short and sweet.
The film comes after Gray’s long-delayed “Ad Astra” finally hit theaters two Septembers ago (to mostly positive reviews). This new project will bring Gray back to New York. If you remember, his first 5 movies ( “Little Odessa,” “The Yards,” “We Own the Night,” “Two Lovers,” and “The Immigrant”) were all set in the Big Apple.
Gray wrote and directed “Armageddon Time,” which stars Anne Hathaway, Jeremy Strong, and Anthony Hopkins in “an autobiographical drama about growing up in mid-1980s Queens, New York.” The film is said to be about his parents.
