Acclaimed actor Billy Bob Thornton was recently seen in Cranford, New Jersey, shooting scenes for an upcoming film. The 70-year-old Oscar winner stars alongside Ariana Greenblatt in 'Somedays,' directed by Brian Klugman. The movie is slated for release in early 2027.
Billy Bob Thornton, known for his roles in films like 'Bad Santa,' 'Armageddon,' and 'Monster's Ball,' was spotted on Monday in Cranford, a suburb in New Jersey. He appeared on the set of 'Somedays,' dressed as a delivery driver in a parking lot along Miln Street. The film, written and directed by Brian Klugman, follows a terminally ill delivery driver who saves and befriends a troubled teenage girl, forming a profound bond.
Thornton shares the screen with Ariana Greenblatt, who has appeared in projects such as 'Barbie,' 'Avengers: Infinity War,' and 'Now You See Me: Now You Don't.' Currently, Thornton stars in the Paramount+ series 'Landman.'
New Jersey has emerged as a popular location for Hollywood productions. Recent shoots include Adam Sandler's 'Happy Gilmore 2' across the state and another Netflix project in Cranford last summer. The Bob Dylan biopic 'A Complete Unknown' was also filmed there, along with upcoming Netflix films 'The Whisper Man' and 'Here Comes the Flood.' This activity is set to increase with Netflix's planned massive studio in Oceanport.
