RICHMOND, Va. — The cast and crew of the new PBS mini-series MERCY STREET is in Richmond filming the Civil War-based drama about the lives of two volunteer nurses on opposing sides. The series stars actors and actresses like HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER star Josh Radnor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead from THE RETURNED. While celebrities may sometimes seem closed off from you and me, some actors and actresses provide fans with a glimpse behind-the-scenes using their social media accounts. Several MERCY STREET cast members seem to be fond on taking photos on Instagram. Here is a selection of shots that shows the MERCY STREET crew around town.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who plays Nurse Mary Phinney, a feisty New Englander and widow who is a newcomer at Mansion House Hospital, asks a practical question about her costume.



Winstead, a North Carolina native, seems to be happy enjoying springtime on the East Coast.



It seems the actress got some time off of the set to enjoy a Canal cruise.



Actress Tara Summers, who plays Anne Hastings on MERCY STREET, enjoys Richmond’s public art.

Summers, who you’ve seen in BOSTON LEGAL, STALKER and RAKE, is also complimentary of her co-stars and Richmond’s natural beauty.

Though the actor, who you’ve seen in HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER, did seem a tad jealous of this crew.

Actor Cameron Monaghan, who plays Tom Fairfax, spent some of his time in town learning about the city’s history.

We have yet to find Instagram accounts for or recent photos from MERCY STREET cast members Josh Radnor (HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER), Gary Cole (VEEP, THE GOOD WIFE, OFFICE SPACE), Peter Gerety (THE WIRE), McKinley Belcher III (MADAM SECRETARY, CHICAGO PD), Shalita Grant (NCIS: NEW ORLEANS) and Hannah James, but we trust they too are enjoying their time in Richmond.

By the way, if you’re on Instagram, please give WTVR CBS 6 a follow here.
