TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) — Kihekah Avenue in Pawhuska is transforming for the production of “Killers of the Flower Moon,” a film to be directed by Martin Scorsese.

I drive downtown quite often and they are working on all of the buildings,” said Cody Garnett, owner of the Ben Johnson Cowboy Museum. “I heard some crazy thing like they are going to turn our Kihekah Ave. back into a dirt street like it was in the ’20s. They are working back here building a new train depot, too.”

Construction crews for the film are working on multiple buildings in downtown Pawhuska. One crew member told NewsChannel 8 that they are happy to give some of the buildings a face-lift.

The crew member said they are glad the community is supporting the making of the film there.
