Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams were spotted filming Netflix comedy film Eurovision in Edinburgh.
Ferrell was wearing a leather jacket over a top and brown pants while Rachel wore orange dungarees and a colourful striped cardigan.
Ferrell and Rachel are playing the characters of Lars Erickssong and Sigrit Ericksdottir who are Icelandic singers in the Netflix comedy ‘Eurovision’.
Lars Erickssong and Sigrit Ericksdottir get an opportunity to represent Iceland at the Eurovision Song Contest.
An onlooker, who watched them filming for their upcoming project, said: “It was amazing to see such big stars up close in Edinburgh. My colleagues were stunned to see Will and Rachel driving past in an open-top car.”
“We didn’t speak to them, but the crew around were lovely and accommodating, and working hard to keep the public away. It’s a shame they were so busy – we’d have invited them to the pub for a drink after.”
“Personally I’m glad the filming industry is giving Scotland the chance to shine like this. It’s really putting us in the spotlight.”
The Netflix comedy film Eurovision is written by Andrew Steele and Will Ferrell. The film also stars Pierce Brosnan, Dan Stevens, and Demi Lovato.
A few days back, Vin Diesel filmed Fast and Furious 9 in Edinburgh and praised the city wholeheartedly on social media.
According to DailyMail, City of Edinburgh Council deputy leader Cammy Day, said: “It is a source of real pride that Edinburgh attracts these kinds of projects and it’s very exciting to welcome the latest project from Netflix to the capital next week.
“We welcome filming for the economic benefit, employment opportunities, and the on-screen promotion it brings.”
“Productions are exciting for film fans and we ensure that film-makers engage with all residents and businesses within the area in which they plan to film to make sure that life can continue with as little disruption as possible when the city takes centre stage.”
