RUMOURS are circulating that Hollywood stars Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans are currently filming in Portsmouth, with crews spotted at the city’s naval base.

As reported, production vans set up camp in a car park at the Lakeside North Harbour site in Cosham earlier this week where they said they will be stationed until tomorrow (May 14).

The convoy is acting as a hub for filming on location at the naval base further south in Portsea.

Although crew members were unable to disclose exactly what they were working on to The News, several readers have come forward to say Avengers actors Johansson and Evans have been seen at HM Naval Base.

Some believe the pair are shooting for a new Apple TV feature called Project Artemis, directed by actor-turned-director Jason Bateman.

In response to a query by The News, a Royal Navy spokeswoman said: ‘For commercial reasons it would be inappropriate to comment.’
