It looks like Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s movie with Hilary Swank has been re-named "Invasion of Privacy" and is filming in Albuquerque, New Mexico from May to July.
Does this movie still take place in Brooklyn? It seems silly to film a movie set in New York in New Mexico. That’s what Toronto is for!
Here’s a synopsis of the film:
Synposis
Every year, three million single women in America move into an apartment for the first time. They do not know who lived in the apartment before them, they do not know their landlords, and they don’t bother to change the locks. This is the story of one such woman…
After separating from her husband, pretty young doctor Juliet Dermer moves to Brooklyn, settling into a new life in a stunning and spacious loft apartment that seems too good to be true.
It is…
Mysterious occurrences lead her to suspect that she is not alone in her home and quickly her fears become all too real. In a chilling revelation, she discovers that her seemingly charming, young landlord, Max, has developed a dangerous obsession with her. A terrifying game of cat and mouse ensues as Juliet fights to free herself from Max’s sinister intentions.
This erotic and sexy thriller in the vein of Disturbia and Fatal Attraction is written by Antti Jokinen, Robert Orr (Saviour) and Erin Cressida Wilson (Fur, Secretary). Antti Jokinen will direct.
Having a stranger having access to your apartment, creepy or not, is a very scary topic, especially for women. In my first apt. I had a very creepy, but stupid, landlord. He actually took a cheque for the key money! So when I moved out, I showed him the cancelled cheques and said I’d show them to the building owner if he didn’t give me my money back. Very, very stupid.
