On September 21, the production company had also noted that actors were rehearsing a scene where an actor jumps from the second floor of the EasyPark parkade and onto the top of “a passing cube truck.”
Although JLo has returned to New York, the filming has not fully wrapped up.
Filming on The Mother is slated to continue for a couple of months in Vancouver. Since the filming is not complete, it’s likely that the star will be coming back to Vancouver to shoot exciting scenes.
Today is Day 1 of prep for Netflix thriller #TheMother with Jennifer Lopez as a retired assassin.
Was last week’s shutdown around Victory Square a gigantic stunt rehearsal?
