Shia LaBeouf drama crew mark Barry filming with tattoos

Recently, the town of Barry in Wales became a hub of excitement as the filming of a new boxing drama called 'Salvable' took place. This film features the well-known actor Shia LaBeouf, famous for his role in the 'Transformers' series. To commemorate their time in Barry, many cast and crew members decided to get tattoos from a local tattoo artist named Bianca Oliveira. Bianca described the experience as 'surreal' because her small tattoo shop was filled with famous faces. One of the actors, Michael Socha, took her up on the offer of a free tattoo, while LaBeouf chose not to get one, stating that he wanted to keep space on his body for his daughter's drawings. The film 'Salvable' tells the story of a boxer, played by Toby Kebell, who struggles with his past and his relationship with his teenage daughter. LaBeouf plays a character who is an old friend and a bad influence on Kebell's character. The film showcases the rugged beauty of Barry, with scenes of boxing matches and the local pier, capturing the essence of the seaside town. Directed by Bjorn Franklin and Johnny Marchetta, 'Salvable' is the latest in a series of productions filmed in the area, following other notable films featuring stars like Tom Hardy. Bianca, the tattoo artist, was particularly excited to tattoo Michael Socha, who is known for his role in 'This Is England'. She found it surreal to tattoo someone she admired growing up. The crew filmed many scenes near her shop, allowing her to work on tattoos while they were busy filming. Shia LaBeouf was seen interacting with fans and taking selfies around Barry, but he opted out of getting a tattoo. Bianca thought it was sweet that he wanted to save space for his daughter's artwork. Throughout the day, she tattooed several crew members, including the directors and costume designer. By the end of the day, she felt comfortable chatting with them as if they were regular clients. The crew even enjoyed some local fish and chips from a shop called Fryer Tuck, adding to their experience in Barry. Bianca mentioned that after the filming, people began to recognize her and her shop from a story in the local newspaper. She expressed her love for Barry, saying that for a small town, it has a lot to offer.
