Lucy Liu and Jonny Lee Miller Film 'Elementary' in DUMBO

DUMBO — Actress Lucy Liu braved the chilly weather Monday to film her new hit CBS show "Elementary."

Liu was spotted with her co-star Jonny Lee Miller sitting outside Ignazio's Pizza, at 4 Water St., about noon.

The two were chatting at an outside table before Liu got up to consult with crew members.

A short while later, the crew packed up the set and the shoot ended for the day.

"Elementary" is a modern re-imagining of Sherlock Holmes with Miller in the leading roll and Liu as his hard-nosed assistant.

Unlike BBC's "Sherlock," which is simply a modernized version of the late-Victorian detective stories, "Elementary" casts Holmes as a recovering drug addict who has moved to New York City.
