Ed Mazmanian from the notable Marvel Movies facebook page has assembled a great deal of findings involving the production of the Nicolas Cage-starrer Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance. From set footage showing segments of an explosive action sequence to various interviews with crew members, as well as a recent filming complication involving the Romanian police, check them out below.
First up, set footage from the Romanian set was captured consisting of an action sequence over a busy bridge underway, with a "big bang". And also in the midst of the two-minute video, Scott Levine, Unit Publicist, talks a bit about what exactly is being filmed. And I should warn English-speakers that Levine's speaking is the only bit of English in the clip.
Next, the second clip consists of a gather of Romanian journalist attempting to speak English, questioning
Ghost Rider 2's executive producer, E. Bennett Walsh. Seven minutes long, I should warn you that it's far less entertaining than the first. And you may not understand much in the first two minutes; turn up your volume. However, Walsh answers great questions regarding scenes to-be-filmed.
And last, according to the
Libertatea, the problem that occurred on the set of
Ghost Rider 2 involved [Translated]:
Nicolas Cage had a surprise on Saturday morning with an improvised set, the Romanian Academy in Bucharest, where they poured some production footage from "Ghost Rider 2." After 14 hours of filming in the cold and rain, with 300 extras in the morning, and police appeared, they are called by one of them. The person who made the complaint and was unhappy that producers were held in inhumane conditions throughout the night, while , the movies just half an hour, stood to heat the cabin. Meanwhile, figuranţii worked in the rain and cold, dressed only in shirts, filming taking place in a building without a roof.
At one point, shooting at a boar was brought difficult to restrain and convinced to enter the role, and sequences were repeated dozens of times, to the dismay figuranţilor, angry that risk their health for 40 lei. Police checked people's contract, then take off as they came, saying that justice can address discontented and boar has animal protection associations.
