According to Hometown Headlines, actor Steve Carell from “The Office” has been spotted around Rome last week.

Carell dined Wednesday night at El Zarape Mexican Restaurant on Broad Street, ate at Schroeder’s New Deli on Broad on Thursday and then ate lunch at Bistro 208 on Friday.  The Rome Braves sent him a request via Twitter asking if he would throw out the first pitch at a Rome Braves game; so far no word on a response from the actor.

Carell is one of the lead actors in the movie “Irresistible” now filming in Rockmart. According to IMDb, the film tells the story about a Democratic strategist who helps a retired veteran run for mayor in a small, conservative Midwest town, and also stars Rose Byrne and Mackenzie Davis, among others. Comedian and former “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart is the director.

The movie is slated to be released in 2020. Stewart was seen scouting out locations in Rockmart in early March.
