Kevin Bacon's ‘The Following’ Filming in Rye Today

Expect traffic delays while Fox shoots scenes for its series.

Dozens of crew cars, cameras and grips moved through the streets of Rye today to film scenes for FOX’s The Following, according to Rye Deputy City Clerk Diane Moore and Rye City Police.

Expect delays near Playland Parkway this afternoon, where crews are expected to shoot until around 8 or 9 p.m., Moore said.

The scene will involve moving vehicles, so there will be no permanent closures, but short-term delays may result, according to Rye City police.
