The filming of an upcoming pilot of HBO mini-series titled "The Deuce" has been underway at several NYC locations including our home sweet Bushwick.
The Deuce is set in nowadays very popular New York of late 1970's and it explores the seedy underworld of Time Square during the rise of porn industry, the violence of the cocaine epidemic and the renewal of real estate market. The story follows the career of twin brothers (both played by James Franco) who "were players in the Times Square world and became fronts for mob control of the volatile and lucrative sex industry," wrote Variety.

Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal was also cast to appear in the series alongside Franco. She will play a Times Square hooker with the street name “Candy” who is drawn into the fledgling porn industry. The Deuce has been filming in Chelsea on Friday and several photos of James Franco in a very 1970s outfit with a bushy moustache and longer hair leaked on the Internet. The actor himself has been bragging with his moustache on his Instagram.
