This from the
Liverpool Echo:
"ALL-ACTION Hollywood fantasy will roar into Liverpool next week when filming on comic book blockbuster Captain America starts.
The big-budget big screen version of the iconic cartoon hero also means a big pay-day for the city.
The crew will be filming for six weeks at Stanley Dock and have already booked out around 600 hotel rooms to accommodate everyone from the big-name stars to make-up and lighting experts.
Shooting starts next Thursday, moving north from its current London suburb location, although on-set preparations have already begun."
Captain America: The First Avenger was written by
Stephen McFeely and
Christopher Markus and is currently filming under the direction of
Joe Johnston. Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Stanley Tucci, Hayley Atwell, Dominic Cooper, Neal McDonough and
Tommy Lee Jones star.
