SCREEN legend Sir Michael Caine will return to Chadwell Heath in a month's time after the heaviest snowfalls in a generation brought filming to an abrupt end last week.
Oscar-winner Caine, 75, was on location in an A12 subway near Warren Terrace for his new crime thriller Harry Brown but it became flooded.
He is understood to lead as an ex-serviceman drawn to vigilantism in a gang and drug-filled suburb.
He will star alongside actress Emily Mortimer, 37, playing a policewoman in the film noir directed by Daniel Barber.
Executive member for arts and culture, Labour Cllr Bob Little, said: "Barking and Dagenham has some wonderful locations for feature films and we are happy to work with film production crews to use some of our landscapes in their movies.
