8 reported3 unconfirmed
Jennifer Garner and Judy Greer were spotted filming a scene with Emily Bader on the set of Netflix’s reimagining of “13 Going on 30,” according to set photos published by Just Jared on Tuesday. Garner, who played Jenna Rink in the original 2004 film, is an executive producer on the project and had previously told Variety she would visit the set. The photos show Garner, Bader, and Greer — who played Lucy “Tom-Tom” Wyman in the original — in costume at a building in Santa Monica, California. Netflix has not confirmed whether they are reprising their roles, and the project’s logline remains undisclosed. The new film is directed by Brett Haley and also stars Logan Lerman, Taylor Zakhar Perez, Jessica Alba, Adeline Rudolph, Taylor Ortega, Tim Meadows, and Dan Bucatinsky. The original 2004 film, directed by Gary Winick and starring Mark Ruffalo, grossed $96 million in theaters. Garner previously told Variety she championed the reboot because she did not want it to happen without her participation, citing the script and Bader’s performance as key factors.
