A stretch of downtown Cincinnati is being transformed into 1950s New York for a new movie.
"The Wise Guys," a gangster drama starring Robert De Niro, is currently filming Downtown after starting production in the Queen City late last year, Kristen Schlotman, CEO of Film Cincinnati, confirmed to The Enquirer.
A stretch of Eighth Street near Arnold's Bar and Grill was blocked off to cars and pedestrians earlier this week. Film set equipment and vintage cars with New York license plates could be seen nearby.
