Lights, Camera, Action!
Shooting for the Hollywood film "After the Sunset" is set to begin at its Paradise Island location today, publicist Cid Swank confirmed.
Although it was confirmed that the multi-million dollar production was delayed by one week because of "other problems", Ms. Swank denied the suspension was due to an inability to obtain lumber for set building, as was reported in the Bahamian media.
New Line Production Company also has denied that acquiring lumber was a "problem" for them "as a production".
"We were supposed to start filming Monday (past); we were pushing for Monday, but we decided to start filming this Monday," she said.
The cast of the movie, led by James Bond star Pierce Brosnan, will be working in The Bahamas until almost the end of the year. The remainder of the filming will then take place in Los Angeles.
New Line Productions recruited some 1,400 Bahamians to participate in the movie, with extras earning $75 per day. The estimated cost of the project has not been released.
