Halted for the weekend, filming for Iron Man 3 was in full swing last week over in Wilmington, North Carolina, not only disclosing a few movie details, but also exposing a patriotic foe. And now On Location Vacation has learned when & where next week's shoot will take place, while WECT knows who & what'll be filmed.
WECT reports: Iron Works productions plans to film at least one [driving] scene of Iron Man 3 in Cary next week. The production's Assistant Location Manager Ben Stolte requested four motorcycle officers from the Town of Cary to escort a caravan down the street as crews are filming and to briefly hold traffic at a few intersections they would cross in the process.
Twitter user @WannaRubaDdub tells OLV: Iron Man 3 is expected to film scenes on Caitboo Ave behind Crossroads Cinema in Cary, N.C. on Monday (6/4) and Tuesday (6/5) from 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. And yes, Robert Downey Jr. will be there!
UPDATE: According to OLV once again, The local news is reporting filming will take place on June 6th, around the “SAS campus likely using Harrison Avenue, Cary Parkway or Weston Parkway.” Another tipster also emailed us some more details writing, “Iron Man 3 will be filming at SAS in Cary, NC on Monday through Wednesday. There will be lots of extras and minimal overnight security presence.”
And more interestingly, in regards to what the scene(s) Iron Patriot consisted of last Wednesday, "trusted" sources tell OLV: They’ve been filming in studio (except tues when they did 1 day on location) Iron patriot scene was at the ILM airport Tues — The scenes were the president arriving with military and secret service..
The first image pictured below, filming at the Wilmington International Airport last week just may support the claim that the president will have some sort of role on-screen in Iron Man 3. If so, it likely won't be President Obama himself, but I wouldn't rule out a lookalike; although none were spotted on-set. What do you think?
Described as a “technological crisis thriller,” set in the world of international war, arms & terror, Marvel Studios' “Iron Man 3” stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Andy Lau, Ashley Hamilton, James Badge Dale, with Sir Ben Kingsley and Jon Favreau. Shane Black (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang”) takes over directorial duties from Jon Favreau, who helmed the first two “Iron Man” films. Principal photography will occur primarily in North Carolina and China. And “Iron Man 3” is set for release in May 3, 2013.
