Timothee Chalamet Coming To Hoboken Indie Bookstore? It's Not Completely Unknown
Hoboken's independent bookstore is being transformed into a music shop, likely for "A Complete Unknown" starring Timothee Chalamet.
HOBOKEN, NJ — On the heels of the filming of a new Timothee Chamalet movie in upper Hoboken last week, an independent bookstore was being transformed into a music shop this week — likely for the same production.
[UPDATE: See Chalamet call to Elle Fanning during filming on Wednesday.]
"A Complete Unknown," a Bob Dylan biopic starring Chamalet as the young folker, has been filming in various Hoboken spots over the past few weeks, with local parks and stores made up to look like the West Village from 1961-1965 (see photos of Chalamet and Ed Norton filming here).

When asked on Monday, the owners of Little City Books said they're not at liberty to say who's filming.
But the signs placed on the bookstore are for "Music Inn," a West Village mainstay that opened in 1958.

The store said it will be closed through Wednesday, June 12, meaning it's likely that more than one interior scene will be filmed there, rather than the quick exterior shots of last week.
For fans who want to see the filming, there's good news — the bookstore is located at First and Bloomfield streets, a walk of five or six blocks west from the Hoboken Train Terminal. If the past is an indication, the filmmakers won't take long after setup to bring the stars to the set.
Other Spots Around Town
Meanwhile, "No Parking" signs in at least two other Hoboken neighborhoods indicate that film crews will be there later this week.
On Tuesday, crews were preparing a brownstone on the 800 block of Bloomfield Street for filming. The "No Parking" signs on that block indicated that a film shoot will take place on Wednesday, June 5.
Similar signs are also posted near 11th Street. Ed Burns' new film, "Miller By Marriage," filmed at that location in late March. Read more about that, and see photos, here.
