Chicago indie gangster film “Chicago Overcoat” has just wrapped principal photography, according to an e-mail I received on Friday from casting director Chris Charles. He also released to me the following production still of Frank Vincent (“The Sopranos”) with a Tommy gun.

In addition, Charles sent the following Chicago filming details:

We filmed scenes with Armand Assante (“ER,” “American Gangster”) and Rick Plastina on Wednesday at the Joliet Correctional Center.

On Thursday, the production went out with a bang. We blew up a car just off Damen and 29th.

To follow the progress of the film through post-production, you can check Beverly Ridge Pictures for details. “Chicago Overcoat” will hit theaters in the summer of 2008.
