Asheville celebrity spotting: Lorne Michaels at The Market Place restaurant

Looks like the Market Place restaurant on Wall Street in Asheville is picking up on the celebrity buzz machine following Bouchon restaurant’s announcement yesterday that actor Jude Law ate at their place on Monday. From Market Place on FB:

Great to see SNL producer Lorne Michael(s) recently at The Market Place! He’s been in Asheville setting up for his new movies with Zach Galifiniakas and Owen Wilson!

That movie, Loomis Fargo, will start filming following the July Fourth holiday, folks tell me. Moviemakers are setting up sound stages at the old Volvo facility in south Asheville, apparently.

It’s shaping up to be a busy summer for celebrity sightings in Ashvegas.
