In just about a week or two Shyamalan will roll the cameras to shoot After Earth. For the past few months he’s been occupied with the casting of the film, location scoutings, and recently finished rehearsal sessions with Will Smith and Jaden Smith. Previously via Twitter Shyamalan stated that the tone and atmoshphere of After Earth’s story will be close to Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi epic Alien.
And again just recently via Twitter Shyamalan shared a very interesting picture, which you can see below. It’s slightly giving us the idea behind the art of the film’s title design if you look at M.Night Shyamalan’s name.
Update: Via his google+ profile Gary Whitta has revealed that this week the cast of the film is heading to Costa Rica to begin filming. Then onto Philadelphia, Utah, and Northern California.
OMG can’t wait to see this movie!
It will be EPIC!
Same here!!
Can not wait, id say this is going to be BIG! go Night go!
Am I the only one who noticed a seat for E. Bennet Walsh?
You are right. I didn’t notice Walsh’s name at first. 🙂
It’s kinda cool that Night is starting to shoot things outside of Philly.
@rohan, it’s not IMDb but over at NYT, E. Bennett Walsh is credited as Producer and Line Producer for this “sci-fi” movie. http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/464176/One-Thousand-A-E-/credits
@Wags, He shot the early parts of The Last Airbender in Greenland.
Hasdi,
Thank you for the link. The list looks impressive, now can’t wait for some stills from the sets. 🙂
