Josh Radnor

We recently had a filming taped at our store and we’re excited for its release. It’s called “Happy. Thank You. More Please.” which was filmed over the summer throughout lower Manhattan. Josh Radnor who plays Ted Mosby from “How I Met You Mother” wrote, directed and acted in the film. Movie blogs tell us this Indie Drama is a ‘coming-of-age tale follows six lives in modern day New York, highlighted by a 20-something aspiring novelist who accidentally adopts a 6 year old African American child’. We’ll keep you posted when the movie is released so you can see Metropolis’ movie debut! For more info about the film check out the site ScriptShadow.
