The Man From Toronto is filming massive explosions and other stunts in Milton
The star-studded cast of The Man From Toronto has been in Milton all week filming a number of different action-packed scenes for the new movie, and today is all about stunts.
Stars of the film Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson as well as their stunt doubles have been spotted by local residents while filming everything from gun fights to police chases this week.

Poor car... Ok, new question. How did it get that high in the film? 🇨🇦🎥🎬#TheManFromToronto pic.twitter.com/VfGybP6Q0y
Unfortunately, filming some of these stunts hasn't been entirely smooth sailing thanks to some car troubles (the same car broke down twice), but luckily they were eventually able to resolve the issue.

The Man From Toronto got the car running for the chase scene. 🇨🇦🎥🎬
For those that missed it, this car has broken down on set twice and counting. 🤦♂️#TheManFromToronto https://t.co/l6qS2PElhC
The week of production on and around Main Street has undoubtedly brought tons of excitement to the relatively small Ontario town of Milton, and one of the movie's crew members actually posted a video thanking the town's residents for having them — all while an explosion can be seen going off in the background.

And while it may be a slight disturbance to constantly hear the sounds of gunshots and explosions in the middle of your town for a week straight, at least locals have gotten to spot Hart and Harrelson strolling around town.
