Kaley Cuoco is filming – six days per week, per her recent Instagram admission. The 34-year-old actress is currently in New York City as she shoots her upcoming HBO Max series "The Flight Attendant," with the paparazzi appearing ready and waiting for the blonde as she filmed in downtown Manhattan on Tuesday.

Kaley's vodka-swigging photos quickly made The Daily Mail's headlines, although Kaley has mentioned the beverage in a non-set context recently – the "Big Bang Theory" star joked that her morning coffee was actually vodka during a special episode of her "A Cup of Cuoco" Instagram stories a few days ago.

Photos showed Kaley shooting a scene. The blonde was looking cautiously to her side as she leaned against a NYPD cop vehicle, also seen swigging from a tiny bottle of vodka. Given that the fan info on "The Flight Attendant" series' plot has remained thread-bare, there's no guessing what Kaley's Cassandra Bowden character was up to here.

Kaley was rocking a wintry outfit. The star looked sensational in a light pair of jeans, red leather booties, and a big flowing coat in black, also sporting a striped top underneath her outerwear.

Kaley fully admitted that she wasn't used to the bitter East Coast winter recently. The star took to her Instagram with a display of her layered-up look – Kaley wore two pairs of pants plus three tops as she confessed:

"Something I've never had to do while shooting in L.A."

"Two pairs of pants for the weather, three shirts...," she added.

As to the jeans, Kaley couldn't button them.

Kaley has been joined in NYC by younger sister Briana. The 31-year-old actress and fashion entrepreneur will feature in "The Flight Attendant."

"The Flight Attendant" will see Kaley play Cassandra Bowden, a woman who wakes up hungover and in a Dubai hotel room only to find a dead body lying next to her. The series' release date has not yet been announced.

Kaley will take on both a starring and producing role in the show – behind it all is Kaley's Yes, Norman Productions company which she named after her Pit Bull mix dog. Shooting has also taken place in Rome, Italy, where Kaley was spotted on a green Vespa scooter.

"The Big Bang Theory" has ended, but fans won't forget the street-smart girl across the hall. Kaley has reflected on her Penny character.

"You know, she’s iconic. She’s the best character I’ve ever played. She has every single quality. She’s funny, she’s [silly and] I’m sill, she’s sarcastic. She loves Leonard and she loves these guys and she’s a real girl," Kaley told She Knows.

"You know, we’ve tackled a lot of issues this year. Her even not wanting to have kids and her wanting to be a businesswoman. I don’t think we’ve seen that a lot in television. I was really impressed that they went that path and yeah, she’s a reason why I’m doing everything that I do in the future will be sent back to Big Bang", she added.
