Some Chicago filming news from the NYT: Patrick Swayze’s New TV Series Will Proceed Despite His Cancer.
Patrick Swayze, who only a few months ago was found to have a life-threatening case of pancreatic cancer, has recovered enough that his planned drama series for the A&E network will go into production this summer, with him in the starring role.
The series is called The Beast, and it filmed at least 55 separate locations in Chicago last December and November.
