*The first scene of our filming day is the kick off scene.
And from what we're hearing we're in for some really special surprises as to who's on the Gotham Rogues football team.
We'll keep you posted as we hear more about this.
We still don't know which of the cast will be on set that day.
* It will be a late fall to winter scene in Gotham City...
So we're going to need everyone to wear a coat or jacket that they can take off between scenes. Dress for hot weather under the coat. If you have any coats or jackets that are "gold and black", please bring them, otherwise dark or black jackets or coats work.
*Absolutely NO ONE WILL BE ADMITTED WEARING ANY LOGO'S, OF ANY KIND. This includes anything, nothing that is Steeler's related or Batman or Dark Knight or Sport Team, or Company related etc. You will not be allowed to enter the set with anything you have with you that has a Logo. You will have to go home if wearing logos. It's a very serious legal thing for the filming of Dark Knight Rises.
*Looks like they're going to allow us to make signs to bring and wave. That's only if you want to bring one of course.
*About the Weather: It will probably be VERY HOT and SUNNY. So dress lightly under the coats you're bring to be in the scene. Well be removing the coats between scenes. No One Wearing Shorts will be admitted onto set, even though hot. Just wouldn't match the scene.
*More about Weather: Production is asking you to: Bring an umbrella with you to keep the sun off of you during breaks in filming. Bring Suntan Lotion with you.
•More On Weather: Looks like THEY ARE FILMING RAIN OR SHINE (as long as there's no lightning going on). Truth is, hey, this is Gotham City... and Gotham as you remember from past films is a Very Very Moody Place. So, whatever the weather Dark Knight Rises IS filming. If it starts raining too hard we will move under the stadium overhangs to keep dry till it lets up.
Well that is a whole lot of info from the casting company. Who is the special surprise play on the Gotham team? Is it a cast member? Could Bruce Wayne be a punter? Or did they recruit a real honest to goodness NFL player to come in? Which is probably more likely since the NFL players are on strike and have nothing better to do.
What else did we discover? It stinks to be an extra in the summer when you're filming a winter scene, that's for sure. Geez, putting on a large winter coat and not passing out seems to be the biggest challenge for the extras.
By the way, the choice of making a sign? Love it! I'd make a terrific sign for the Gotham Rogues....once i figure out what the hell a Rogue mascot would look like.
The Dark Knight Rises hits theaters July 20th 2012 and stars Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth, Garly Oldman as Jim Gordon, Tom Hardy as Bane, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as John Blake and Marion Cotillard as Miranda Tate.
