ROME, GA. — The filming for the production of ABC Studios “The Kingmakers” originally scheduled for Sunday, March 22, 2015 has been postponed to Tuesday, March 24, 2015 due to expected rainy weather conditions.

The public is invited to watch and participate in filming that will take place on the Oostanaula River from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday. Spectators are asked to line the town green riverfront and pedestrian bridge to watch, and cheer on the rowing regatta that will take place on the river.

For the best chance to be featured on TV, participants are encouraged to wear blue apparel without logos, brands, or school emblems. Additionally, participants are advised to avoid red, which is not a camera friendly color.

There will be intermittent traffic control on Second Avenue and Fifth Avenue between Broad Street and West Third Street from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Traffic will be held up to 5 minutes and released as they are actively filming on the river.
