Lisa Marie Blotsky wrote 11Alive The A-Scene, “'QST?' Filming down by the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception downtown."

One notable filming location for tons of action is the mansion of rap mogul Rick Ross.

In an interview with Nick Cannon on Power 96.1, he revealed scenes for the movie are being filmed at his home.

The two discussed if creating a sequel for the film was necessary.

“The reason why I’m believing in it so much is because they are filming at my estate in Atlanta,” Ross said.

“That movie is so classic. It’s something I just don’t want to touch,” Cannon said.

Ross revealed that the original movie is his favorite and that is the main reason why he wanted to be part of the making of the sequel.

The mogul resides in at Fayette County estate on Old National Highway. The property was once owned by Evander Holyfield.
