NEXT Village SF is a neighborhood nonprofit providing services and support that empower members to live independently in their own homes as they age. Through regular get-togethers, local field trips, assistance with errands and more, our volunteers and staff work together to enrich, enhance, and nourish the lives of seniors in our community. As a vibrant, growing network for aging adults in northeast San Francisco, NEXT Village SF is connection you can count on. At NEXT Village, we believe in the power of community to achieve society-wide change in the way we age. Everyday, we work to build caring communities that dignify aging and honor our desire to age in the place we call home.

New Matrix Movie Will Be Filming in FiDi Starting February 9th

Posted on by

Exciting news for film buffs: Adobe Pictures will be coming to the Financial District to film action scenes for Project Ice Cream, a feature film reportedly part of the Matrix series, from February 9 to March 1, 2020. There will be low-flying helicopters, drones, car chase scenes, “quarter-load” simulated gunfire, smoke, and pyrotechnics. No helicopters will fly directly above the Commons or The Gateway, but there will definitely be audible helicopter noise.

Interested in being an extra in the film? Click here.

What you need to know:

  • The majority of the filming will be done at night or on weekends.
  • Expected filming hours: Wednesdays (5 am-7 pm), Thursdays (12 pm-7 am Friday), Fridays (7 pm-7 am Saturday), Saturdays (12 pm-7 am Sunday), and Sundays (12 pm-7 am Monday).
  • There will be some street closures, mainly on Montgomery and its cross-streets between Clay and Bush. There will also be closures on Battery, Drumm, and Front south of Clay Street during the last week of February. Market Street will remain open.
  • The filming schedule is subject to change. Once filming starts, the schedule will be updated weekly.
  • During weekends in February you may want to rethink your driving route out of the neighborhood.
