David O. Russell's "American Hustle" production resumed on Monday April 22.
Deadline reported that the Sony picture would continue filming after production was cancelled on Friday April 19th due to the Boston Manhunt.
After a long search, police captured bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. He was arrested Friday in the Watertown area of Boston. The news came a day after his brother, Tamerlan was killed during a gun battle with the police. The brothers are suspected of planting pressure-cooker bombs at the Boston marathon a week ago and killing three people and injuring several others.
Russell's new movie tells the story of a notorious financial con artist (Christian Bale) and his mistress/partner in crime (Amy Adams) who are forced to work with an out of control federal agent (Bradley Cooper) to turn the tables on other con artists, mobsters, and politicians. At the epicenter of the entire tale is the passionate and volatile leader of the New Jersey state assembly (Jeremy Renner) who is also the local hero and mayor of impoverished Camden.
The film reunites the director with "Silver Linings Playbook" stars Jennifer Lawrence and Cooper. It also reunites him with Adams and Bale after "The Fighter." It also stars Jeremy Renner, Michael Pena and Louis CK.
Lawrence is scheduled to reunite with with Russell for an untitled film set for the Weinstein Company and will next reprise her role as Katniss in "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire." She will star in "Serena" also alongside Cooper.
Cooper is currently in "The Place Beyond the Pines" with Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes and will next star in "Serena."
Bale will next be seen in "Out of the Furnace" with Zoe Saldana, Forest Whitaker, and Woody Harrelson. Adams will next appear in "Man of Steel" and in Spike Jonze's new film "Her." Renner last appeared in "The Avengers" and "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters." He will next star in "Kill the Messenger."
"American Hustle" is scheduled to continue filming through May and arrives in theaters on December 25, 2013.
