Two film updates today. First up 'Hollywood Giant' has news on additional shooting on the Jerry Bruckheimer battle epic "King Arthur" due in July:
"Scenes for Jerry Bruckheimer's epic, 'King Arthur' were being reshot in the Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales this week. Today was the last day of filming and they reshot some of the opening title sequence. Apparently, the studio was not impressed with what they saw. These new shots included tracking a young boy on horse galloping across the mountain and various aerial shots for this. The dramatic landscape is supposed to double for Russia - despite the fact that the Arthurian legend originated around these parts. Next week they will be at Pinewood Studios".
Meanwhile ever rising "Cabin Fever" filmmaker Eli Roth checked in over the weekend with word on Universal's "Scavenger Hunt" which he's writing and directing:
"It's going to be a balls out old school hard R teen sex comedy based on true events at my high school about a whole class of overachiever supersmart kids who went crazy and trashed the town (and each other) doing a Scavenger Hunt. What started out as "The Cannonball Run" quickly devolved into "Caligula," with kids impromptu orgies breaking out in front of the judges, girls drinking shots of cum, kids publicly excreting for points, and massive destruction of property.
The 200 kids who did this are all going to Ivy League colleges like Harvard and Yale, and are under so much pressure all the time they just snapped and went berserk. The goal is to make the most twisted, over the top, teen sex comedy that will push the boundaries of good taste as far as the censors will allow - all based on what really happened".
