Last week American Hustle, formerly the Untitled David O. Russell Project, wrapped up more than two months of filming in Massachusetts and spent the final few days of production in New York City.

The movie stars Christian Bale as a financial con-man who was caught by an OTT federal agent, played by Bradley Cooper, along with his girlfriend, played by Amy Adams in the 1970s. The couple was offered a deal provided they help turn the tables on other crooks and shady politicians. They ended up taking on a leader of the New Jersey state assembly, played by Jeremy Renner, among others. Jennifer Lawrence, Robert De Niro, and Louis C.K. also star.

Below are a few photos of a nearly unrecognizable Christian Bale and Jeremy Renner filming a scene outside The Plaza on Saturday.

American Hustle will hit theaters on Christmas Day.
