WATCHMEN SET: JFK Meets Dr. Manhattan
Filming is underway folks...
Just a few hours north of me here in Seattle shooting is underway on Zack Snyder's Watchmen and fansite WatchmenComicMovie has some on set photos, and the first batch includes a group of pics taken at Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver just before the filming of a flashback scene of Dr. Manhattan meeting JFK at the White House.
The site's source goes on to say:
Billy Cruddup was there, suited up, as the blue super hero Dr. Manhattan. The shoot consisted of Cruddup shaking hands with the look-alike actor playing JFK in front of a green screen while look-alike Jackie, Caroline and JFK Jr. stood close by. Cruddup’s costume consisted of a suit with white gloves and a piece that covered his hair that “lit up with blue LEDs.” The LED covered gear is most likely motion capture equipment used to aid in adding special effects during post production.
For the complete story and a look at the photos click here or on the pic to the right of the JFK look-a-like.
Watchmen is set for a March 6, 2009 release.
