🎬 Newport is getting a dose of Hollywood magic 🎬 Newport is getting a dose of Hollywood magic today as filming continues for “Remain,” a supernatural romantic-thriller starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Phoebe Dynevor, directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

The production is taking over Lower Broadway south of Marlborough Street and parts of Washington Square, with street closures in effect from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. today.

Pedestrian access is open and all businesses are operating as usual. Locals and visitors are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled — you just might catch one of the stars in action (unless the heatwave shuts down production for the day 😅).

👀 @tavernonbroadway is the perfect spot to watch it all unfold.

“Remain” is based on a novel co-written by the unlikely duo of Nicholas Sparks and Shyamalan, blending romance and suspense in a story being filmed primarily in Rhode Island. According to IMDb, the film is slated for an October 2026 release.

🎥 Another big-name production joins Newport’s growing list of filming locations, thanks to its historic streets, Gilded Age mansions, and unbeatable coastal charm.

Curators at the @nptrestoration Foundation have un Curators at the @nptrestoration Foundation have unveiled a new tour that’s sure to have fashion lovers flocking to Rough Point to get a glimpse into Doris Duke’s closets and her expansive archive of clothing. 

“Fashioning Doris Duke: Inside the Fashion Collection at Rough Point” debuted on June 12, offering an exclusive glimpse into the late heiress’s stylish legacy.

Led by NRF’s collections and exhibitions manager Kristen Costa and director of engagement Gina Tangorra, the inaugural tour welcomed a few dozen guests eager to explore Duke’s extensive wardrobe. Tangorra pulled elegant frocks from the racks with care, allowing visitors to admire the detailing up close. Costa noted the archive contains over 2,000 garments from Duke’s residences, including Duke Farms in New Jersey and Shangri La in Hawaii. “We are learning more about her through her clothes,” Costa explained, adding that because Duke didn’t keep diaries, her fashion offers rare personal insight.

The group was then guided to a climate-controlled attic storage room where shelves are lined with acid-free boxes, each labeled with photos of the garments inside. Items range from boutique finds in California to couture from Balenciaga and Yves Saint Laurent. Some pieces await restoration, including a silk-lined cape made from chicken feathers.

Many of Duke’s fur garments were donated decades ago to anthropological and natural history museums, though a few fur-lined pieces remain. The reason for the donation? Furs tend to attract pests. Costa offered practical preservation tips—urging attendees to ditch plastic dry cleaner bags in favor of breathable cotton. “Plastic deteriorates on dresses,” she warned, suggesting pillowcases as dust covers instead.

The tour wrapped in a former guest room showcasing designers Duke championed, such as Madame Grès, Tina Leser, and Irene Galitzine, and concluded with refreshments in the gallery. Two more fashion tours are planned later this year.
