M. Night Shyamalan moves filming of ‘Remain’ to downtown Newport. Here’s where.
M. Night Shyamalan films ‘Remain’ in Newport RI
Washington Square and Eisenhower Park were taken over for a day of filming for “Remain” on Wednesday, June 25.
NEWPORT – Less than 24 hours after the hottest June day ever in Rhode Island, M. Night Shyamalan and film crews took over Washington Square and Eisenhower Park for a day of filming for “Remain” on Wednesday, June 25.
In the early afternoon, action centered on dozens of extras for a crowd scene that included at least simulated live music.
At times, vehicular traffic around the square was halted and pedestrians were asked to either wait a moment or find an alternate route.
Newport is at least the fourth East Bay community to host filming, joining Warren, Little Compton and Bristol, the latter at least serving as the launching point for a Prudence Island Ferry cruise that included filming on Narragansett Bay and an Instagram post by Shyamalan celebrating the first day of shooting. Filming is expected to last into August at locations around the state, as well as on a soundstage set up in the Cranston Street Armory, in Providence.
Temperatures on June 25 in Newport rose into the low 90s, sweltering enough, but not as oppressive as June 24, when the high flirted with triple digits.

Six animals test positive for rabies in Providence County, health officials warn – What’s Up Newp
At least six animals in Providence County have tested positive for rabies over the past six weeks, the Rhode Island Department of Health said Friday, prompting a renewed warning to residents to steer clear of wildlife and keep pet vaccinations current.
Since March 12, three raccoons in Burrillville, one bat and one coyote in Lincoln, and one raccoon in Providence have tested positive for the virus, according to the department, known as RIDOH. Test results on a raccoon from North Smithfield are pending.
Rabies vector species in Rhode Island include bats, raccoons, skunks, foxes, coyotes, groundhogs and beavers, the department said. The virus attacks the central nervous system and, without prompt medical care after exposure, can cause fatal brain disease. Health officials stressed that treatment must begin as soon as possible after a suspected exposure and that people should not wait for symptoms to develop.
Residents who see a wild animal behaving erratically should not approach it and should contact their local animal control officer, RIDOH said. Anyone who has physical contact with a wild animal, or who wakes up to find a bat in their home, should call RIDOH’s Center for Acute Infectious Disease Epidemiology at 401-222-2577 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, or 401-276-8046 after hours.
People bitten or scratched should wash the wound with soap and water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately, the department said. Pet owners whose animals tangle with wildlife should contact their municipal animal control officer and RIDOH.
State law requires all dogs, cats and ferrets to be up to date on rabies vaccinations. Health officials said vaccinating pets protects the animals and prevents people from being exposed to the virus through them.
To reduce the risk of rabies, RIDOH recommends that residents avoid contact with stray or free-roaming domestic animals and wild animals, refrain from feeding either, and keep pet food indoors to avoid attracting wildlife. The department also urges owners to walk dogs on leashes or confine them to fenced yards, report all animal bites to local animal control, and secure garbage cans against scavenging animals.
