April 14, 2009 - The Expendables / official blog
Scooped on Tuesday, April 14, 2009
The publicist working on The Expendables is writing a blog and has posted frequent updates to it during the film's short production run. In addition to finding new photos of Stallone and other cast members doing action stunts there are also the first-hand observations of the publicist as she chronicles the production:
"so we are now into week 2 here in Brazil. today we are shooting in the rural area of Colonia about 1 1/2 hours outside Rio. It is also where the mental institution is located although compared to some of our crew everyone acts pretty normal. The set is situated in the jungle which is filled with mosquitoes and ticks among other things. Factor in the extreme heat and humidity, the occasional downpour, 300 hundred crew members, hundred extras, 4 cameras, cranes, huge lighting set ups, a language barrier and the merging of two completely different ways of working (US vs Brazil) you could have a recipe for disaster. Bu we don’t, thanks to Sly and his total command of the set along with the total professionalism of the cast."
