Movie-equipment trucks are sitting outside the Cavern Club complex on South First Street today in preparation for shooting tonight on the Jason Segel/Emily Blunt romantic comedy "The Five Year Engagement."

AnnArbor.com previously reported that the movie was scheduled to shoot scenes at the club today and Friday, but now the club reports that more shooting is happening at Detroit's MGM Casino today — Segel plays a chef in the film, and the casino stands in as his workplace — before shifting to the Cavern Club late tonight (after midnight).

Preparations for the filming have been going on at the Cavern Club complex for several days. The site on South First Street houses four different but connected clubs, the Cavern Club, Gotham City, the Millennium Club and Circus.
