Film crew sure likes Wellesley

June 9, 2019 by bbrown 1 Comment

A film crew for an Apple TV series starring Captain America’s Chris Evans and Downton Abbey’s Michelle Dockery returned to Wellesley last week after first appearing back in April. A couple of Swellesley readers shared photos with us. No word on whether the celebs were doing the rounds in town.

The project has been going by the code-name “Cortex,” which is interesting since Swellesley’s code-name was Medulla Oblongata. The real name of the show will likely be along the lines of “Defending Jacob,” like the book series it is based upon.
