Robert Downey Jr. is in town to play Tony Stark/Iron Man in "Captain America: Civil War" and has been spotted here and there during his downtime. He and some friends dined at Yeah Burger in West Midtown on Sunday. Previously he dined at the Buckhead Diner and posed for a nice photo with the restaurant's general manager, Maureen Baker, and executive chef Charlie Schwab. We're also told he's taken a shine to the blueberry lemonade at Corso Coffee in the Buckhead Atlanta shopping district.
The Marvel project filmed at Fado Irish Pub in Buckhead, Peachtree Christian Church in Midtown and a huge lot in downtown Atlanta before reportedly setting up shop at the new Porsche headquarters just south of Atlanta.
Jon Hamm has been in Atlanta working on "Keeping Up With the Joneses," a project that happened to overlap with the "Mad Men" goodbye.
Last week, he and some friends dropped by 10 Degrees South, where they all enjoyed many of chef Derek Anthony's favorites including house-made beef jerky, mussels, giant prawns and the restaurant's signature dessert, a sponge cake confection known as Di's Delight.
"Joneses," also starring Zach Galifianakis, is a buddy comedy about suburbanites who turn out to be undercover agents. It has filmed in Buckhead, West Midtown and Peachtree City.
"Barbershop 3″ is now filming in Atlanta, and Anthony Anderson is making sure everyone stays in tiptop shape.
The film's huge cast also includes Ice Cube, Nicki Minaj, Common, Regina Hall, Troy Garity, Sean Patrick Thomas, Cedric the Entertainer and Eve, to name a few. It's been filming downtown and in southwest Atlanta.
Anderson, who stars in the ABC series "Black-ish," has been posting photos of himself and some of his fellow cast members logging time in the gym.
