LAX victim of Hollywood thriller

105 Heads up! Will Smith and his new action movie will make the route into LAX problematic:

More than a mile of the eastbound Century (105) Freeway will be shut down intermittently this weekend and next because of a movie shoot. Columbia Pictures expects to close the highway’s eastbound lanes for much of this weekend and next to shoot an elaborate, pyrotechnic-filled police chase sequence for the upcoming action film "John Hancock," according to the Daily Breeze. El Segundo or Los Angeles International Airport-bound drivers will be forced to use detours when production on the Will Smith flick shuts down a one- and-a-half-mile stretch of the freeway from Sepulveda to La Cienega boulevards from 3 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, location manager Jonathan Hook told the newspaper. Westbound lanes will remain open, but the California Highway Patrol will use rolling breaks to control traffic. (CNS)
