Facebook Movie Filming at Johns Hopkins Today and Tomorrow

Johns Hopkins as Harvard? It's happening today and tomorrow as the Homewood campus stands in for the Cambridge (near Boston) institution during the filming of The Social Network, a movie about the Web site Facebook.

The film stars Jesse Eisenberg (of Zombieland) and Justin Timberlake, who won't be in Baltimore for the two days of shooting. It's a much-anticipated film, written by West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin.

"Maryland has the best film commission in the business, that's for sure," location manager Bill Doyle told The Sun.

Debbie Dorsey, director of the Baltimore Film Office, said that some shooting will take place on Charles Street at night, but no re-routing is expected.

So if you're interested in the inner workings of Hollywood - or Homewood, in this case - head up to Charles Village and sneak a peak.
