These 3 shows will be filming in Long Beach this week

Long Beach has scored another regular filming series with TNT’s picking up of a season of “Animal Kingdom,” based on the 2010 Australian film of the same name.

Crews will be around the city’s oceanfront and Alamitos Bay regularly, shooting scenes for the drama set, ostensibly, in Oceanside, which Long Beach can handle if you throw a little dirt on it. Ellen Barkin stars as the matriarch of a crime family made up of her sons and grandson.

Showtime’s “Ray Donovan,” starring the now-famouser Liev Schreiber, of “Spotlight,” retued to Long Beach on Wednesday to film at a residence in Park Estates. The yellow-and-black direction signs for the production read, simply, “Ray,” so could you blame us for “acquiring” one for our son Ray?

Finally, the IFC mockumentary series “Documentary Now!” will be in town, filming an undisclosed episode at several undisclosed locations on Friday and Saturday. Like the Press-Telegram on Facebook.
