Does the movie itself start filming in august or just the shots in Ohio. Filming starts in the beginning of May right?

StrangerX @ I think this is such a big production that principle photography started awhile ago but only establishing shots and basic stuff, etc. Also filming test shots for concepts designs is also probably well underway.

I don't think the main cast get together until May but that doesn't mean some stuff isn't in the can already.

Considering the amount of post production that has got to take place I am guessing they are pretty much ready to roll by now. Otherwise they simply won't have the time to do the effects.

I live in Sandusky, Ohio and the NASA facility they're planning on using is about 4 mile from my house!! I'm SO pumped for this movie!! Definitely going to try and be an extra. Cleveland is only about 30 miles so I'll be heading there to try and be an extra too! When they start filming I'll try and see what pics I can get for everybody.

Just to clear up this article, right now they are only hiring crew for the movie. They won't be looking for and screening extras for at least a few more weeks if not longer. you can go to http://www.clevelandfilm.com/ to check for updates and stuff like that. I can't wait!!!!
