Rockmond Dunbar Loves Chicago!
Rockmond Dunbar loves Chicago so much that he tried to convince the Powers That Be at Prison Break to stay there instead of moving the filming to Dallas!
“I talked to the aldermen here and tried to get even more of a tax break [for filming].”
Dunbar, who also does some work behind the camera, is trying to bring his next film here in 2008. It’s called “Black Flag,” an action comedy about a black NASCAR driver. He wants to shoot the racing scenes at Joliet’s Chicagoland Speedway.
“Everything looks good, so let’s see if it can happen next year,” Dunbar told Armour & Co.
Chicago is, after all, his home away from home. Dunbar, who lives in Los Angeles, is having a place built in Bronzeville. It’s shaping up to be his, uh, summer home. “I have to be very clear and very honest,” the actor told us. “The summers here are incredible; spring and fall are great. But when you get to the winter, I won’t be here. I’m still keeping my house in L.A.”
Rockmond threw the opening pitch at a recent game in Chicago too.
