A Marvel movie appears to be filming in D.C. this week, but these heroes won’t save you from problems on the road prompted by the Hollywood production.
Road closures and parking restrictions are in place downtown now through Thursday morning, . Many of the affected roadways are near the White House.
Though it hasn鈥檛 been confirmed by the studio, multiple sources that the movie being filmed is the latest addition to the Captain America franchise.
A director in the mayor’s office, Latoya Foster, mentioned that the movie would be filming when discussing upcoming entertainment productions .
“We have Marvel coming to Washington, D.C.,” said Foster. “I can’t give you too much about that but let me tell you we’re going to have a huge Marvel film taking place right in downtown that you won’t want to miss out on.”
