Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Eloise is continuing production in New York City, and new set photos have given fans another look at the beloved character coming to life.
Newcomer Mae Schenk was spotted filming scenes outside the iconic Plaza Hotel in Manhattan on Friday (May 29), dressed in a red ensemble.
For the shoot, Mae wore a red wool military-style coat paired with a matching bellhop cap and classic Mary Jane shoes. The young actress looked remarkably similar to the mischievous children’s book character as she smiled between takes and stood on the hotel’s famous red-carpeted entrance.
The Plaza Hotel has long been synonymous with Eloise, who famously lives at the landmark New York City property in the beloved book series.
The upcoming film is being directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino, the acclaimed creator of Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Amy also co-wrote the screenplay.
Ryan Reynolds will play the film’s villain
Ryan Reynolds is attached to the project as both a producer and the film’s villain.
The cast also includes Sally Hawkins, Victor Garber, David Haig, and Max Casella.
Plot details remain under wraps, but Netflix executive Hannah Minghella previously shared her excitement about bringing the iconic character back to audiences.
“Eloise has been beloved for generations, from when she was first published in the 1950s through to today, when no family trip to New York City is complete without a stop at The Plaza. It’s an honor to reintroduce this cherished character to the world with two people who share her signature mischief and charm — Amy Sherman-Palladino and Ryan Reynolds — in this bold, hilarious, and heartfelt new family film.”
The last batch of set photos also features Isaac Bae filming scenes alongside Mae.
