Merv, the titular character in an upcoming comedy feature movie, takes a break between scenes in late April.

Filming took place at the Hurricane Alley's restaurant on the Carolina Beach Boardwalk in the above photo, but other locations around the city also were used for the movie starring Zooey Deschanel and Charlie Cox.

Hurricane Alley's has been used for other productions such as HGTV shows and Florida Man, said owner David Cole.
