The Gecko has eyes and ears everywhere — even on the set of the new Mel Gibson movie, Edge of Darkness. Nope, Robert De Niro was nowhere in site.

My friend, Betsy Hijazi, who blogs at AguileraBuff.com, has a knack for being in the right place at the right time. Walking through the Boston Common, she happened upon the “Edge of Darkness” set and there was Mel Gibson filming a scene for the movie.

“If I had to run into a bonafide movie star, he’d be at the top of my list,” says Betsy. “I was so happy and shocked to see him.”

More after the jump, including photos…

Betsy reports that Gibson was joking with everyone and very nice to the crowd of about 30 people who’d gathered to watch. Being the expert blogger she is, Betsy had her digital camera with her and snapped a few pictures for Film Gecko. Enjoy!
