Photos from ‘Argo’ Staging Area at Overlee Pool

The Ben Affleck-directed political thriller Argo is filming in the D.C. area, and the Overlee Community Association and Pool is one of the areas where production vehicles have been congregating.

Period-specific cars and taxis can be seen parked in the club’s parking lot off of Lee Highway. A sign on a light poll reads: “Stage 16.”

The production has been casting for extras in Virginia. This casting call says the film will be shooting on Nov. 18, 19 and 20.
