Pamela Anderson and Billy Bob Thornton Film New Movie ‘Somedays’ in Snowy Westfield, New Jersey

Hollywood cameras rolled into Westfield, New Jersey, as Pamela Anderson and Bad Santa 2 star Billy Bob Thornton were spotted filming scenes for their new movie “Somedays.” The filming took place on Wednesday, January 28, turning a quiet winter day into a big moment for local residents.

The actors were seen working in Mindowaskin Park, a popular green space in the heart of town. Fresh snow from a recent winter storm covered the park, creating a calm and emotional setting for the movie scenes. Pamela Anderson, dressed in a blue puffer coat, blue turtleneck, and jeans, walked and talked with Billy Bob Thornton near a gazebo and later sat with him on a park bench.

In other scenes filmed nearby, Billy Bob Thornton, who is 70 years old, was seen wearing a red, yellow, and black DHL delivery jacket and hat. He carried packages and stood at the front door of a local home, showing his role as a delivery driver in the film. These moments were filmed close to the park, adding a real neighborhood feel to the story.

Pamela Anderson, now 58, continues her strong return to movies. She was last seen in “The Naked Gun” alongside Liam Neeson. In 2024 and 2025, she earned Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations for her role in “The Last Showgirl,” directed by Gia Coppola.

Billy Bob Thornton is also having a busy year. He is currently starring in the Paramount+ series “Landman,” which was renewed for a third season in December. He previously won an Academy Award for writing “Sling Blade.”

The movie “Somedays” is written and directed by Brian Klugman and also stars Ariana Greenblatt, who is 18 years old. Speaking to Deadline, Thornton’s character is described as a man facing death with only months left to live, who forms a special bond with a teenager.

Filming also took place on Prospect Street in Westfield and on Miln Street and North Union Avenue in Cranford. The project is another sign of New Jersey’s growing film industry, as more major movies and studios continue to choose the state for production.
