Astoria is buzzing as Sean Penn, Vince Vaughn and the crew of the upcoming movie "Into The Wild" film along the Oregon Coast.
Penn is directing the film based on the book by Jon Krakauer, about a young man who abandons his lifestyle to live in the wilderness of Alaska, where he dies. The lead character's travels take him through Oregon.
The film also features Catherine Keener, Marcia Gay Harden and William Hurt. Rumors abound that other celebrities - not appearing in the film - have also been spotted around town, according to The Daily Astorian newspaper.
Nearly 100 locals turned out at a casting call about a week ago.
