For most of August, Disney will be filming in Norwood as part of a Halloween-themed project, said Norwood General Manager Tony Mazzucco in an interview with Norwood community media.
Disney will be using the Norwood town theatre, the town common and a couple of their parking lots as places to film. Additionally, Disney will call out the town of Norwood in its film and feature several of its businesses. The commons will also be decorated with props from the film, said Mazzucco.
The production will require some roads to be closed down and the closure of Central Street for most of August. Parking will also be disrupted. But for the most part, Mazzucco says he is “excited” about the Disney film.
“We think long-term the ability to have a big company like Disney to come and film a movie here in town it’s going to be phenomenal for us. It’s going to be phenomenal for businesses in town, and it’s going to be great for us, to really put us on the map with a Disney movie being filmed right here,” said Mazzucco.
