Muscle cars, actors, cameras and new facades fill downtown during two-day filming of Motorheads TV series

Harmony Flow Yoga looks an awful lot like the Paris Pub and what about Paris’ other new stores, Wade’s Diner and Bowers Hardware? The town underwent a quick transformation this week as crews from MHTV Canada Inc. rolled in to start filming the Amazon Prime TV series called Motorheads. They spent two days downtown, some time at Bean Park and the Paris Dam. They used drones to film scene shots downtown as well. During the Paris Independent’s visit on Tuesday evening, crews were filming extras cruising the beautiful streets of Ironwood, PA. There’s no official word on when the crew will return or whether they will need to close the street again. They were also in Toronto earlier this year and filmed scenes on Blackfriar’s Bridge in London this past week. The show, starring Ryan Phillippe, features a group of outsiders in a once-thriving Rust Belt town form an unlikely friendship over a mutual love of automobiles.
