Men in Black III Photos and Details!

Men in Black III filmed Wednesday night at Relish, a diner in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (which has been closed since July), reports The Brooklyn Paper, which snapped some photos of production. Check out the photos below!




The images reveal Will Smith and Josh Brolin filming a scene at the restaurant, as well as the light bulb-covered bike riders from the previous films. The light bulb thing is fascinating. I'm feeling kinda excited but then we need to wait a little longer because this will be shown only on May 2012.

The paper also revealed that next month, producers will film for a few days inside the Grashorn Building on Coney Island, which is set for demolition.
