Is the Jennifer Lawrence Movie Filming in Wilmington Again Tuesday?

Find out where film crews are set up in town.

Looks like movie crews are back in town Tuesday filming the upcoming film “Kay’s Baptism,” (aka “Joy”) starring Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro.

This time it appears filming is happening at Wildwood Cemetery. Tuesday morning, there were people standing at the entrances to the cemetery. There is a sign on Wildwood Road right outside the cemetery that says “set.”

They’ve been filming in the area since February. And while there have been Jennifer Lawrence sightings, we have yet to see De Niro or Cooper in Wilmington. Could today be the day?

Last week the movie was filming in town with a base camp at 128 West St. Back in February, filming in town took place on Federal Street. Parts of Grant Street, Mackey Street and Flynn Way were also used for parking of equipment trucks and picture cars during each day of filming.

The movie is described as a “rags-to-riches tale about Miracle Mop inventor Joy Mangano, a Long Island single mother of three children, who became a millionaire practically overnight after launching the product on QVC in 1991. Mangano (being portrayed by Lawrence) is a fixture on the Home Shopping Network with her many inventions, though the mop was her ticket to fame and fortune. She began her inventing as a teen and kept on dreaming and tinkering while still a single mom raising three kids.”
