After a week of filming across Rhode Island’s capital, J.J. Abrams called “wrap” on the Providence portion of his latest project, Ghostwriter, in the early hours of Monday, Aug. 25, 2025. The final stretch of filming unfolded on the Point Street Bridge, beginning at 8 a.m. Sunday morning when police closed the span to vehicle traffic. Nearly 21 hours later, just before sunrise, actor Glen Powell walked across the bridge alongside two companions in what became the production’s closing local scene. By 4:44 a.m., Abrams’ team had finished their work, signaling not only the end of the Rhode Island shoot but, reportedly, the conclusion of filming for the movie worldwide.
