U’s BATTLESHIP HAWAII FILMED POSTPONED TO NOVEMBER?




CBS NIXES ANY MEDIA COVERAGE OF HAWAII FIVE-0 PILOT!
























The much anticipated feature film Descendants starring George Clooney and Academy Award winning director Alexander Payne (above) begins some seven weeks of filming on Oahu March 15…The film from a novel by Kaui Hart Hemmings and screenplay by Nat Faxon is a family drama about a newly widowed father – the descendant of landowners and one of the richest men on Oahu – who takes off with his two rebellious daughters to track down his wife’s lover on the island of Kauai….







Descendants also will film on Kauai for three to four weeks beginning in May…







Cast also includes Shailene Woodley as Alexandra, one of Clooney’s two daughters, Mary Birdsong (below left) as Kai, and Nick Krause as Sid…














Producers are Jim Burke, Alexander Payne, and Jim Talor, and co producer George Parra who is also line producer…Phedon Papamichael is cinematographer…Hawaii crew include Rene Confair as production supervisor and Ashley C. Smith, travel and shipping coordinator. Mads Hansen is assistant production manager…


















Production company is ATC Productions headed by Payne, Taylor and Burke; distributor is Fox Searchlight Pictures…












Tree trunk and branches props lined up outside Comp USA







The production starting this passed Monday is using the former Comp USA building at Ala Moana Blvd. and South Street for its stage sets…Production offices are three blocks away in the Sprint Building at 680 Ala Moana Blvd…




























Hawaii sources say that Universal Pictures mega-bucks as in $150-million-plus feature Battleship will not film in Hawaii until late this year and likely in November…The film to be directed by Peter Berg was looking at a Hawaii filming this summer…A Universal spokesperson couldn’t confirm a film start date saying it’s “too soon to tell dates (or) timing”…







The push reflects a change in opening dates from July 2011 to May 25, 2012…According to Universal, “the film was moved to give it the time and resources to thoroughly realize its huge-scale ambitions and position it for Memorial Day weekend in 2012″…The U describes the film as “a massive Naval adventure across the seas, in the skies and over land as our planet fights for survival against a superior force”…







The water-based epic action adaptation of the board game Battleship will not be filmed in 3D despite rumors to the contrary, Los Angeles sources said…The Hurt Locker’s Jeremy Renner is in talks to star in the film…










Principal casting is being done in Los Angeles by Linda Lowy and John Brace at 4151 Prospect Ave., Cottages, Room 105, L.A., CA 90027…Extras casting has not yet been announced…










PLEASE SAY IT ISN’T SO!

CBS SAYS KAPU FOR MEDIA COVERAGE OF HAWAII FIVE-0 PILOT





Certainly one of Hawaii’s most beloved and cherished series, the CBS network and studio producing the Hawaii Five-0 pilot set to start filming next Monday are declaring no media for the pilot…No reason was given…







What a difference 13 years makes since the last Hawaii Five-0 rebirth was shot here starring Gary Busey and directed by Stephen J. Cannell. That production not only invited news media to the first day of filming but also arranged interviews during the rest of the shoot…

Ahhh, yes Scott, exactly. 30 days. I misspoke. (I must have been thinking 1 day because the AFTRA work was always few and far between prior to the WGA strike.)

Comment by Scott Rogers on February 21, 2010 at 7:56am

Actually with AFTRA, you can work as much as you want within a 30 day window. If you want to work after that, you must join.

Comment by Melissa Pawneshing on February 20, 2010 at 11:32pm

What is good about AFTRA is that you can join before you work an AFTRA show. No vouchers.
If you join, you become union and are no longer eligible for non-union work.

Comment by Melissa Pawneshing on February 20, 2010 at 11:30pm

I second that! You can work AFTRA - here's the catch, you must pay another initiation fee. If you choose not to pay up front they will use your paychecks toward it until you are payed up.

I think the first day of AFTRA is still a freebie, though I could be wrong - I haven't read the latest contract.

Comment by Shawn Lathrop on February 20, 2010 at 10:46pm
