Photos: See where 'Parts Per Billion' - a Rosario Dawson-Josh Hartnett film - shot in Detroit
DETROIT, MI - It wasn't just another day at the office Monday for 61-year-old Sharky Katty, owner of the Temple-Trumbull Market for the past 36 years.Katty and his colleague Stacy Markham, 49, closed the store so crews for a film called "Parts Per Billion" - starring Rosario Dawson and Josh Hartnett - could film a disaster scene there.
"They said they wanted to make a scene," Katty said. "They said they wanted to make it look like the end of the world.
"Real nice guys, and a couple of girls, and they had people put everything back on the shelves in order when they were done."
I caught up with Katty and Markham on Thursday afternoon to get some insight about the film, and found out quite a bit about the history behind the business.
It's about 6,500 square feet, sits at Trumbull and Temple, is adjacent to the Motor City Casino, and nearly got looted by wild celebratory (and likely heavily intoxicated) Tigers fans in 1984 after the team clinched the World Series down the street.
There's also been a few robbery attempts, but nothing quite as exciting as Monday's movie shoot; it included some actors and actresses who laid outside on the sidewalk during the shoot so they could look like dead bodies.
"Never thought I would see a movie get filmed here," said Markham, a lifelong Detroit resident who shot video on his cell phone of the film's empty store setup.
Katty told me crews for the film paid him to use the store for filming, and believe "Parts Per Billion" will hit theaters within the next six to eight months.
The film received incentives and tax credits from the Michigan Film Office last month and is expected to hire 73 Michigan workers with a full-time equivalent of nine jobs.
A synopsis of the film, courtesy of a film office press release:
"The film tells the interwoven stories of three couples forced to make life altering decisions in the face of a disastrous war. Inspired and sometimes blinded by their love, Len, Mia, Andy, Esther, Anna and Erik are as flawed and beautiful as any of the billions who are facing this human-made biological disaster."
Film crews have appeared to be all over Metro Detroit in recent days, and several people who are part of the film have shared photos and insight about the work being done on Twitter and Instagram.

First Look: Penn Badgley proposes to Teresa Palmer in first set photos from indie drama "Parts Per Billion"
“Gossip Girl” regular Penn Badgley and Aussie rising star Teresa Palmer film a wintry proposal scene on the set of their new film, indie drama “Parts Per Billion”, and Just Jared have the photos. In the film written and directed by Brian Horiuchi, Badgley and Palmer play one couple amongst interweaving stories of three different couples who have to make life-altering decisions in the wake of an apocalyptic biological disaster. Getting hitched as quickly as possible seems like it would be a popular course to take.Badgley and Palmer appear to be taking roles that were once earmarked for Robert Pattinson and Olivia Thirlby back in 2009, while Rosario Dawson, one of the original cast members, is still part of the project. New additions include Josh Hartnett, Gena Rowlands, Alexis Bledel and Frank Langella and filming is now underway in Detroit, Michigan.
