PLAINVILLE – The city center was transformed into a Hollywood film set on Monday.

South Street, between Pleasant Street and Lincoln Avenue, has been periodically closed to vehicle and pedestrian traffic to allow filming in and around Don’s Diner.

The filming is for a Netflix sci-fi adventure film called “The Mothership”, starring Halle Berry, Molly Parker and Omari Hardwick.

Berry, who won an Oscar for her role in “Monster’s Ball” in 2001, was spotted on set by a WBZ film crew. In addition to staring in the film, Berry is listed as an executive producer.

The sci-fi adventure follows Berry’s character Sara Morse a year after her husband mysteriously disappeared from their rural farm, according to Deadline, an entertainment website.

When she discovers a strange alien object under their home, Sara and her children set off on a race to find their husband, their father “and most of all – the truth,” according to the website.

City officials were not sure who else was shooting at the site on Monday. Filming was to last a day, according to a city official.
