Movie Shooting Scenes in North Decatur Friday, Monday

North Decatur residents may get caught up in traffic delays caused by a movie shoot happening at a local church on Frday and Monday of next week.

Sony Pictures said it would be shooting scenes for the Jennifer Garner and Queen Latifah movie “Miracles from Heaven” at North Decatur Presbyterian Church from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, but it’s not clear if crews will use the same schedules Friday and Monday.

“In order to properly capture the emotion of the scene, we’ve requested to use intermittent traffic control on Scott Blvd,” the production company says. “Care will be taken not to block area residents or business access to these streets.”

Off-duty DeKalb County police will ensure traffic flows as smoothly as possible on Scott Boulevard, but may be asked to stop vehicles for as long as five minutes so crews can film their scenes. Uniformed police will be at the intersection of North Decatur Road and Scott Boulevard to provide extra traffic control.
