Showtime hit “Ray Donovan” shoots scenes at Sunset Park’s Irish Haven
Once again, Irish Haven, a well-known Irish bar in Sunset Park that has been used for film and TV shoots in the past, was turned into a set for a hit television show.
Last week, a scene from the Showtime series “Ray Donovan,” starring Liev Schreiber, was filmed at the pub, a longtime institution in the neighborhood.
The show, which has Jon Voight and Susan Sarandon among its cast members, was canceled last February. After a groundswell of backlash from fans, Schreiber, who also writes and directs episodes of the show, wanted to see it through. Rather than doing an eighth season, the show is finishing out the seventh season with a series finale that will be a feature-length film.
