"Juno" Star Michael Cera Attacked While Filming Latest Movie In New York

Hollywood, CA (CNS) - Actor Michael Cera recently discussed some of the rough situations that he and the cast had while filming his latest movie, "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist."

The movie was shot almost entirely in New York, in areas such as Williamsburg, Brooklyn and Manhattan's Lower East Side. It took 29 days to film and was shot at night from 8:00 p.m. to 8 a.m.

Cera said that things would start to get rowdy in the early morning, with people watching the filming to go so far as to attack and throw things at the actors.

Cera told Parade Magazine during an interview, "Sometimes on Fridays or Saturdays if we were shooting at 2am and bars were letting out we'd get the spillover of drunk people."

"You can't legally ask them to not be in the shot. People can be wherever they want. And drunks can be pretty obnoxious sometimes and were screaming and running through the shots."

"We even had things thrown at us. An avocado was thrown at us by a homeless guy. He was really mad that we were in his space."
