When Life’s a Party, Everyone Has Fun


Today was our third day of shooting and everyone had fun at “The Murphy Estate.” The day’s scenes were based around the Irish tradition of, well, celebrating anything Irish. Everything and everyone was covered in green as the family and friends celebrate the halfway point to St. Patrick’s Day, a soccer game that happened years beforehand, yet still celebrated annually in the Murphy household.

Fred Willard had a full day on set. In addition to the regular shooting, he was as good-humored as ever as our crew was able to get a quick photo-shoot, as well as a behind the scenes interview.

Lastly, Sean Lackey was wearing all of his hats today, actor, director, producer, and host. Getting wittier as the day moved forward, but always remembering what role he was playing during any given moment.

Keep checking back to keep up with everything happening on set of “The Yank.”

With drink in hand and moods still running on high … the luck of the Irish lives on.

Better Late Than Never

To keep the public updated on our progress with the shooting of “The Yank” this blog will be updated daily from this day on about what is happening on set each day. Today was our second day of shooting, however our first day with the infamous Fred Willard. The day started off a little rough with us having to cancel our second scene of the day due to location problems, but with the upbeat moods of our cast and crew we were able to turn the day around and everything went smoothly at our third location, the Irish Botanical Garden on Martian Luther King Boulevard. It was at this location where Mr. Willard first graced us with his presence. He was a bit quiet, but a joy to have on set nonetheless. With everything going so smoothly thus far, everyone is excited to film at “The Murphy Estate” tomorrow. Stay tuned for more information about on set action and information about a possible live twitter feed.


With sunny skies and smiling faces, the luck of the Irish lives on…
