Netflix\u2019s live-action adaptation of Eloise<\/em> is continuing production in New York City, and new set photos have given fans another look at the beloved character coming to life.<\/p>\n

Newcomer Mae Schenk<\/strong><\/a><\/strong> was spotted filming scenes outside the iconic Plaza Hotel in Manhattan on Friday (May 29), dressed in a red ensemble.<\/p>\n

For the shoot, Mae<\/strong> wore a red wool military-style coat paired with a matching bellhop cap and classic Mary Jane shoes. The young actress looked remarkably similar to the mischievous children\u2019s book character as she smiled between takes and stood on the hotel\u2019s famous red-carpeted entrance. <\/p>\n

The Plaza Hotel has long been synonymous with Eloise, who famously lives at the landmark New York City property in the beloved book series.<\/p>\n

The upcoming film is being directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino<\/strong>, the acclaimed creator of Gilmore Girls<\/em> and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel<\/em>. Amy<\/strong> also co-wrote the screenplay.<\/p>\n

\u201cEloise has been beloved for generations, from when she was first published in the 1950s through to today, when no family trip to New York City is complete without a stop at The Plaza.
