Filming to take place in the middle of February



Confirmation that filming for 'Bond 22' will take place in Panama in February, plus some details, can be found in Spanish through The Associated Press. Not many new details that hadn't been previously rumoured really, but still nice to have confirmation.

Scenes from the new James Bond film will film in mid-February in a colonial neighbourhood of the capital, it was reported on Tuesday.

The filming will take place in at least two sites of the so-called Casco Antiguo (‘old quarter’) of the city on the Pacific coast, where the seat of the National Institute of Culture and some private buildings will be used.

The filming will last about a week and will be conducted mainly in the afternoon and evening, according to Ariel Espino, director of the Office of the Casco Antiguo.

Espino met last month with the director of locations for the new 007 movie, ‘Bond 22’, which will star British actor Daniel Craig.

“We offered full cooperation, helping to manage traffic, isolate the area of cars and people”, during the shooting, said Espino, who hopes it will attract tourists from around the world to the Casco Antiguo.

He said he understood that scenes will also be shot in the province of Colon, north of the capital, and approximately 700 Panamanian extras will be used in the shooting.

Four years ago, ‘The Tailor of Panama’, starring former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan, was filmed in the Casco Antiguo.

The Casco Antiguo has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Can't be. She only had 600 sisters.

Sorry, my mistake.

The other 100 are her French-Algerian boyfriend.

Presumably all trying to 'do' the 600 sisters. I wonder if they'll use 50 Frenchmen and 50 Algerians...

Interesting that they will only be in Panama for a week (or is that just a week in Casco Antiguo?).

I think it's a week in Casco Antiguo, and then more filming in Colon (which I believe is where a boat chase will be filmed).

Is Colon suitably irrigated?

Everybody's "Colon" will be suitably irrigated if they drink the tap water there.

Hmmm, Only a week, thats not long. Looks like Panama isn't a 'main' location then. Unless, the have a stand in Pamama in Pinewood.
