The Sorcerer’s Apprentice is shooting in Manhattan, spending much of last weekend filming a Chinese New Year in the wee hours of the morning, filling the streets with trash that I’m sure an army of PAs had to sweep up between certain takes.

Imagine my surprise after our last group of on set photos to be contacted by someone claiming to be on the inside with a few mysterious and sometimes blurry photographs, including the above picture which appears to be a set-in-progress of a Crysler Building facade. Will Jay Baruchel’s apprentice be conducting from one of New York’s most recognizable buildings?

More inside…

Our super-fun spy photos show parts of the Chinatown sequence with Nic Cage either disappearing in or causing a tiny fireball. Also, a vintage car with an unknown character in it takes Baruchel for a ride and some sort of “work in progress” can be seen on a lab set.

Yay non-exterior photos!

Keep ‘em coming if you got ‘em, special secret spy friend.
