Last night one of your favourite Puerto Morelos hangouts was turned into a movie set.
Cantina Habanero was used in the filming of a scene in the upcoming movie “At Midnight” by Paramount Pictures.
The film stars Monica Barbaro, Diego Boneta, Whitney Cummings, Anders Holm, Catherine Cohen, and Casey Thomas Brown.
The romantic comedy is directed by Jonah Feingold.
“At Midnight” is a romantic comedy about two people who do their best not to fall in love, Alejandro (Boneta), who lives a predictable life, and Sophie (Barbaro), a rising movie star with an unreliable celebrity boyfriend. During a visit to Mexico (this is where Puerto Morelos comes in) to shoot scenes for her new movie, Sophie falls in love with the hotel manager.
You can read more about the movie here in Deadline and here in Variety.
This is not the first time Puerto Morelos has been used as a location. Our picturesque village has been featured in several TV shows, music videos and commercials. You can see more here.
