It seems that it is possible that Transformers 4 may end up filming in Thailand at least according to The Hollywood Reporter. Paramount Pictures was one several studios that participated in the "Inbound Roadshow Familiarization Tour" from the Thailand Film Office that is attempting to try to get Hollywood to film there more often by showing off its variety of location. Transformers trilogy location manager Ilt Jones was one of them to participate in the tour.
This doesn't mean the film will take place an Asian country. Nor does it mean that it even be a primary film location. It just means that the studio looked around (on another's country's dime). Depending on the final script, it could be ideal for a specific goal much how Transformers trilogy filmed overseas (Egypt, Russia, etc.) depending on the needs of the scenes. Considering the great pride that Michael Bay takes in making his movies in the United States (such as using Bethlehem, PA as Shanghai, China), I just don't see production spending much time, if any, in the city for Transformers 4. Considering the ever growing importance of the international market in box office sales, all this could change once someone else takes over the franchise from Bay. Thanks to Wynton for the link.

Thailand isn't a city in China lol. Filming might take place either in Bangkok,Thailand or someplace in China.
ReplyDeleteYeah not sure why I added that as know better. Made the corrections to the post.

ReplyDeleteThey could be doing the "split story" theme again where they have multiple stories that come together in the end for the inevitable Michael Bay "big-boom" finale.

ReplyDeletei like this film, car with hero ...
ReplyDeleteJust because some sites report filming here and there, it doesn't mean it's entirely true. It could be "in the script" or "an idea" but in reality the scene was filmed in America and just made to look like it was there. You know, the Russian Chernobyl scenes (DOTM) were filmed in the US and the Shanghai scenes (ROTF) were filmed here as well. :)
ReplyDeleteOnly a few scenes were filmed in Malaysia but they all turned out to be just a crane camera going up and down for DOTM. That was to launch one of the rods to bring back Cybertron. That got, what... 5 seconds of airtime? Hardly newsworthy. haha
So any news about China this or Thailand that... most likely just a few quick cuts on popular landmarks just to establish an epic visual montage but nothing more.
