Photogenic Gaston County Catches the Eye of Filmmakers
culture, filming, movies, television,
Photogenic Gaston County has definitely caught the eye of TV and movie crews.
Its close proximity to Charlotte (and its international airport) as well as four distinct seasons of weather have built the county into a filmmaker’s destination. Two recent Gaston County projects include Shallow Hal, starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Black, and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, starring Will Ferrell.
Other endeavors include CBS miniseries such as Shake, Rattle & Roll and The Last Brickmaker, as well as recent movie projects filmed partly in Gaston County – Body Count, Saint Maybe, The Rage: Carrie II and Having Our Say.
