Comedian Amy Schumer was filming a new Hulu series called Life & Beth on the Upper West Side on Tuesday, the latest show to restart production on the UWS. Photographer Bobby Bank was on set on 88th Street and sent us these shots.

Schumer apparently plays a wine distributor grappling with her past. Michael Cera and Michael Rappaport are in it too. Here’s how Hulu describes it:

“Beth’s life looks pretty great on paper. Impressive to everyone she grew up with. She makes a good living as a wine distributor. She’s in a long-term relationship with an attractive, successful guy and lives in Manhattan. When a sudden incident forces Beth to engage with her past, her life changes forever. Through flashbacks to her teen self, Beth starts to learn how she became who she is and who she wants to become. We’ll go on her journey toward building a more authentic life. Learning to express herself and living in an intentional way. A trip down memory lane is a strong source of trauma, comedy and moving forward.”

We saw her in Riverside park. They told us she was filming an American Express Commercial.
