Film no sudden move movie#
Talking about the significance of the city in the film, Cheadle told Detroit Free Press, “Detroit is absolutely a character in this movie and I think it permeates everything that happens. Despite it being cheaper to film in Cincinnati, Ohio, where many productions go to achieve a Detroit aesthetic at a significantly lower budget, Soderbergh insisted on using the city as his filming location and even cut costs elsewhere to free up money to shoot in Detroit. The city of Detroit is an essential backdrop for the film as it follows the criminals that control the very city. A barbershop of the style found in Detroit in the 1950s was also recreated on East Jefferson Avenue, along with a few other cosmetic changes on the street. The building can be found at 3044 West Grand Boulevard. The former General Motors world headquarters, which has since been rechristened Cadillac Place, was dressed up to look like its former corporate self. With its depiction of 1950s Motor City, the film went to great lengths for authenticity. The Maccabees Building, located at 5057 Woodward Avenue, as well as the Amore da Roma cafe on 3401 Riopelle Street also served as filming sites for the film. The building’s exterior was used to depict the once-famous Hotel Gotham that was known to host the city’s rich and famous in the past. The Park Shelton building, located in Midtown Detroit at 15 East Kirby Street, stood in for Gotham and was used for filming the outdoor scenes. Filming also took place on Ashton Avenue and Lyndon Street in the city. The area, which is known for its vintage brick houses that were built between the 1920s and 40s, was used to film the home of one of the film’s main characters. Due to the period nature of the film, the production team spent significant time filming in the historic district of Rosedale Park. ‘No Sudden Move’ is set in 1950s Detroit, and the production team chose to shoot the film on location in the city, using many of Detroit’s quintessential spots. Let’s take a closer look at the specific locations used in the film. However, a day before production ended, Soderbergh announced that no one who was associated with the physical filming had been infected during the shoot. The production proceeded with rigorous safety precautions, which were made all the more daunting as there was no framework established for filming under such conditions. Filming resumed on September 28, 2020, with the production being one of the earliest to resume filming amidst the ongoing global health crisis. Principal photography was slated to begin in April 2020 but was halted due to the Covid 19 epidemic.
Initially titled ‘Kill Switch,’ ‘No Sudden Move’ is set in urban Michigan, where it was also filmed on location.
