Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate continue playing best friends on the Brooklyn set of FX series Dying for Sex
Jenny Slate and Michelle Williams were hard at work, yet again, playing best friends on the Brooklyn set of their upcoming FX limited series, Dying for Sex.
On Tuesday, filming - which originally began March 4 - took place outside the real-life Garden Gourmet Deli & Grill.
For the scene, the 42-year-old SAG Award winner used a colorful psychedelic scarf to shield the 43-year-old Emmy winner as she sat on stacked boxes of Fiji Water and Blue Moon beer.
Jenny and Michelle then animatedly talked to a large mystery man, who appeared to be portraying the deli's owner.
Slate and Williams were then joined by a female crew member to map out how they should play the outdoor scene.

The Dawson's Creek alum stars as Molly, a woman diagnosed with stage IV metastatic breast cancer who leaves her husband of 15 years in order to explore her sexuality and heal past trauma with the time she has left.
Michelle was also filmed lighting up a cigarette from a pack of the fictional brand, Moruno Menthol.
Williams' costume consisted of a black winter coat over a white-knit sweater, blue jeans, and black booties.
The five-time Oscar nominee - who flashed a smile - also serves as one of the six producers on Dying for Sex alongside Liz Meriwether, Kim Rosenstock, and Leslye Headland.
The Seasoned Professional comedian plays Molly's 'joyful and life-affirming' best friend and caretaker.
Jenny and her stunt double were dressed identically in a colorful plaid winter coat over a red scoopneck top, cuffed dark-rinse jeans, and black boots.
Dying for Sex is based on Nikki Boyer's hit six-part Wondery podcast series of the same name from 2020.
Last year, Michelle received Grammy Award buzz for her narration of Britney Spears' NY Times-bestselling memoir The Woman in Me.
