Woodhaven residents willing to brave the snow and cold Friday got a toasty treat: a glimpse at two of Hollywood and music’s hottest stars: Rachel McAdams, best known for her roles in “The Notebook” and “Mean Girls” and rapper-turned-actor 50 Cent.

McAdams and 50 Cent could be found milling about 94th Street and 85th Road, filming “Morning Glory,” a new romantic comedy by director Roger Michell that explores the wacky and hilarious lives of four morning news producers and anchors.

The film, which comes out this year, also stars Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton, Jeff Goldblum and Patrick Wilson.
