The movie was originally scheduled to start filming in April for a December release on Netflix, but it is now set to be released sometime in 2021 on the streaming platform, due to the pandemic, according to IndieWire.
“They were supposed to use my house for the scenes, but I made too many updates to the exterior of my house since March,” said Framingham resident Leslie Fraser. “Happy they are using my neighbor’s house, as they used mine for a movie around 10 years ago. Nice to spread the love around the neighborhood. They rented my porch furniture for this set and brought it to my neighbor’s house.”
