A crew filming a new movie called “I Hate You Dad” starring Adam Sandler is in Brookline today in and around First Parish church on Walnut Street.

The Columbia Pictures production is filming a wedding scene at the church at 382 Walnut Street, just south of Boylston Street/Route 9, and will be in town through Wednesday, said Brookline Police Lt. Phil Harrington.

The Unitarian Universalist church has been rented out for the comedy and Harrington said Sandler and actor James Caan were at the church Monday for filming.

Leighton Meester of “Gossip Girl” is also in town for the movie, which also stars Andy Samberg and Susan Sarandon.
