    Nobu Hotel And Restaurant Opens In Atlanta

    4 Min Read

    Nobu Hotel has opened its doors in Atlanta, Georgia. The long-awaited opening comes more than three years after the famed hotel’s entry into the Atlanta market was first announced with none other than Hollywood actor Robert De Niro.

    Located in Buckhead, Nobu Hotel offers 152 rooms and suites anchored by a plush restaurant that specializes in Japanese cuisine, bar and lounge complete with rooftop swimming pool.

    When Did Nobu Hotel Open In Atlanta?

    Nobu Hotel opened on Wednesday, November 23, 2022. The hotel has been taking reservations since August, but now you can actually stay there and make a reservation for the famous restaurant. The eatery comes from the mind of Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, who has made a name for himself for his fusion Japanese and Latin American cuisine.

    What’s on The Nobu Restaurant Menu?

    Diners at Nobu’s restaurant can expect such signature dishes such as Black Cod Miso, Rock Shrimp Tempura, Crispy Rice and Spicy Tuna and Yellowtail Sashimi. The beverage program also features creative and bold cocktails. Here is Nubo’s Cold Dinner Menu:

    Who Owns Nobu Restaurant?

    Now an acclaimed, Japanese celebrity chef and restaurateur, Matsuhisa is determined to add Atlanta to his stable of upscale restaurants.

    Matsuhisa said that it was his mother that inspired him to venture into the culinary arts.

    “Watching my mother and grandmother inspired me to cook, but my brother helped me discover sushi. He took me to a sushi restaurant in Saitama, where I am originally from,” he told Country and Townhouse magazine. “We sat at the counter and watched the chefs make it – it was an incredible experience. I didn’t know what any of the names meant, but after one bite, I knew I wanted to be a sushi chef.”

    He started off with his restaurant restaurant in Beverly Hills, California in 1987. From there, his creative mix of Japanese and Peruvian ingredients grew into a success. He joined forces with De Niro in 1994 and his restaurants went global.

    Where Is Nobu Hotel Located In Atlanta?

    Nobu Hotel is located at 3520 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30326, which is in Buckhead. Here’s a map to help you find it.

  • Tenoch Huerta in Wakanda Forever: Black Panther

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Takes In $840M+ At Box Office

    4 Min Read

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has been going gangbusters at the box office since its opened in November 2022. The movie surpassed the $840 million mark over the past few days.

    After more than a week in theaters, the Atlanta-filmed movie has raked in nearly $500 million domestically and another $350 million outside the U.S.

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Wins At Box Office

    Given its strong debut, industry insiders expect Wakanda Forever to track closely with the first Black Panther movie, which took in $202 million during its opening weekend.

    For the year, Marvel Studios has contributed mightily to Disney’s box office reign, but Wakanda Forever has a chance to beat them all. Here are the top grossing films for 2022.

    • Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness — $955 million
    • Thor: Love and Thunder — $761 million
    • Black Panther: Wakanda Forever — $381 million (and counting)

    How Is Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Doing At The Box Office?

    Domestically, Wakanda Forever took in $202 million around the United States. Abroad, the movie has pulled in an additional $150 million — and it’s just been one weekend.
    In its second full week, the sequel is projected to pull in $72 million, making it an official blockbuster.
     
    The original Black Panther movie took in $202 million in its weekend in February 2018. It would go on to make $1.3 billion across the world and put the entire MCU on notice.

    Where Was Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Filmed?

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was filmed in various parts of the United States and Puerto Rico. Major production was done just outside Atlanta at Trilith Studios, as well as around Georgia, including in Brunswick at the Mary Ross Waterfront Park. Just like the first Black Panther film, Tyler Perry Studios was also used for some key scenes.

    In addition to Atlanta and the Vulcan Materials quarry in Stockbridge, Georgia, some landscapes in Massachusetts also appeared in the film.

    Who Is The Breakout Star Of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever?

    Critics aside, it’s pretty evident that Tenoch Huerta’s turn as Namor stole the show. On the publicity tour for the movie, Huerta, who is from Ecatepec de Morelos, State of Mexico, has made a point to remind people that Namor is not a symbol of Latino representation, but rather, Mexico’s indigenous population. In fact, in the film, Namor describes himself as a Mayan.

    Here is Huerta in his own words:

    The movie’s trailer elicited high emotion weeks before its release.

    Final Word

    It’s pretty clear now that Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever is an instant hit and has not brought even further spotlight to Atlanta as the new center of the moviemaking universe.

    The film continues to take in massive haul in the early days of its release in U.S. theaters. The movie’s opening weekend took in $180 million, which is an all-time high for November.

    Because of the steady flow of movie and TV productions, Atlanta has been called the Hollywood of the South and it’s not just a label.. If you want to be an actor, the city has classes you can take as well as places that provide headshots and more. You can also audition at numerous casting calls to build your movie and TV reel.

    Now Casting In Atlanta: Kids Football Movie

    kids football movie casting

    What Is The Underdoggs About?

    The Underdoggs is about a former professional football player named Jaycen Jennings (Snoop Dogg) who has to coach a peewee football team as a condition of his parole.

    The Underdoggs is a real personal project for me considering that I’ve been coaching football for 15+ years with the Snoop Youth Football League that I started with my long-time business partner Constance Schwartz-Morini. Giving back to the community through football has taught us so many invaluable life lessons that we’ve been able to share with kids in similar situations like mine when I was growing up. My hope is that this movie will shed light on the realities that kids and adults face in the hood and within the complex world of football,” said Snoop Dogg.

    “Having been fortunate to work with each in the past, I can attest that Snoop, Charles, and Kenya are the perfect ingredients to make Underdoggs a classic sports comedy,” said Jonathan Glickman. “In particular, Snoop’s personal connection to the material will make for a film that not only delivers laughs, but a whole lot of heart for generations of fans.”

    Final Word

    With nearly 1,000 movie and TV projects just in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.
    There are so many movies filmed in Atlanta these days that it’s hard to keep up with it all. That’s why I suggest you subscribe to AtlantaFi.com to get all the freshest movie casting calls, celeb sightings and Atlanta happenings delivered to your inbox.

    RReal Tacos To Open Several Metro Atlanta Locations

    3 Min Read

    Atlanta restaurant Rreal Tacos plans to expand across metro Atlanta in the coming months. The eatery has some aggressive expansion plans that it will put into action over the next several months.

    Rreal Tacos To Expand Across Metro Atlanta

    In addition to Rreal Tacos’ locations at Midtown at 100 6th St. NE and West Midtown at 1000 Northside Dr. NW, the eatery recently announced that it will open in the following metro Atlanta locations:

    • Chamblee
    • Sandy Springs
    • Buckhead
    • Decatur
    • Gwinnett County

    “In Atlanta if you want real, authentic Mexico City tacos, you go to Buford Highway, but it’s not a date night kind of place,” Damian Otero, who co-owns Real Tacos with Miguel Hernandez, says in a news release. “Conversely, if you want something upscale with great drinks, it’s a mammoth restaurant with ‘Americanized’ food. We have created a niche intersecting the two.”

    The owners have leaned into making authentic Mexican street food with Rreal Tacos, sourcing their taco ingredients from various regions of Mexico using fresh — never frozen — meat marinated for over 12 hours for dishes such as asada from northeastern Monterrey, birria barbacoa from Guadalajara, or taco al pastor, one of Mexico City’s signature tacos. 

    Where Is Rreal Tacos Located In Atlanta?

    Rreal Tacos currently has two locations — 100 6th St NE #110, Atlanta, GA 30308 and 1000 Northside Dr NW STE 600, Atlanta, GA 30318.

    It’s third location will be opening in the coming months in Chamblee at 5070 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Atlanta, GA 30341. Here’s a map to help you find it.

    Atlanta Casting Call: ‘A Man In Full’ — How To Apply

    4 Min Read

    Man in Full, a Netflix series, is casting actors and extras over the next week to film scenes in Atlanta.

    Filming for A Man In Full began the first week of August 2022 and is scheduled to run into mid-December. Keep reading to learn more about the project, including casting call information.

    What Is The Plot Of A Man In Full?

    What we know about the plot for A Man in Full can be gleaned from the 1998 Tom Wolfe bestselling novel, which the series has been adapted from.

    Here’s a summary of the novel:

    The setting is Atlanta, Georgia-a racially mixed, late-century boomtown full of fresh wealth and wily politicians. The protagonist is Charles Croker, once a college football star, now a late-middle-aged Atlanta conglomerate king whose outsize ego has at last hit up against reality. Charlie has a 29,000-acre quail-shooting plantation, a young and demanding second wife-and a half-empty office complex with a staggering load of debt.

    Meanwhile, Conrad Hensley, idealistic young father of two, is laid off from his job at the Croker Global Foods warehouse near Oakland and finds himself spiraling into the lower depths of the American legal system. And back in Atlanta, when star Georgia Tech running back Fareek “the Cannon” Fanon, a homegrown product of the city’s slums, is accused of date-raping the daughter of a pillar of the white establishment, upscale black lawyer Roger White II is asked to represent Fanon and help keep the city’s delicate racial balance from blowing sky-high.
