You may have heard that there is going to be a re-boot of the popular 1980\u2019s television show Miami Vice Called Miami Vice \u201985. Austin Butler and Michael B. Jordon are starring in the lead roles originally played by Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas. Hope they keep the original theme music and opening imagery, some of the best ever\u2026The Sopranos is another one, but I digress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While it\u2019s been reported that the reboot is being filmed in Miami and New York, it\u2019s also being filmed right here in New Jersey, Wayne to be exact, Preakness Shopping Center on Hamburg Turnpike to be precise. Pretty cool! The production company has brought in palm trees (hope they\u2019re fake or they\u2019ll freeze) and changed some of the fa\u00e7ade and signage at the mostly abandoned strip mall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As stated in an article for The Record Bergen County, \u201cNew Jersey has experienced a persistent rise in film production spending in recent years. The state incentivizes filmmakers by offering tax breaks of up to 40% for certain production expenses. Since the state reinstated those tax credits in July 2018, it has become a filmmaking hub. Variety reported in August (2026) that 73 films took advantage of the program last year, spending more than $1 billion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even Sussex County is getting into the film business with BarnLight Studios based out of Branchville. We can only hope that Austin and Michael take a road trip and visit us in Sussex County\u2026Adam Sandler too, we hear he\u2019s been spotted filming in New Jersey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
