There has been a number of movies shot here in Buffalo, this city is really known for a lot of its architecture and rich history and scenery. Back in 1984, The Natural was shot here, and more recently, in 2020, A Quiet Place II was also shot in Buffalo. Many of us have seen The First Purge, which was recorded here in 2018, and one of my all-time favorites, Bruce Almighty, shot here in 2003. Now, according to newsbreak.com another movie that is being shot here is looking for extras, which could be your chance to make it to the big screen.
