The Dark Knight BOF: Cardington Set Update.

[Miranda Fox]

A Report on "The Hangers"
Author: Jett
Wednesday, November 8, 2006 - 6:05 AM, 11:00 AM “S.W.” shot me an email to update us all to what’s going on in the UK at the Cardington Hangers:

“Hi there, just thought I would send you a short email [and the picture below] to give you some info that the Cardington Hangers…are getting very busy with lorries and sets in and out all day. A helicopter came in yesterday with Nolan and they all went in to the hanger to check the set out. I have seen the set and it looks good. I think it’s the Batcave they have built this time, but I’ll have to get closer to be sure.

I was lucky to get in the last film and I was on set 8 times. I have included a pic of the hanger and as you can see, it’s getting busy. But today its just gone to overdrive!”



The Cardington Hangers -- November 2006
On a related note, UK insider "Mr. J" tell us that the word is that TDK will not be "crewing" until March. He's not sure if that meant that principle filming wouldn't start a bit later than the March date we've been hearing...

Interesting stuff. There's also a picture with the article of the hangers: http://photos.imageevent.com/batmanonfilm/bofimagesbofimages/cardington1_2006.jpg

Many movie companies are now converting old WW2 buildings that were made for aitplane manufacturing, blimp manufacturing, etc.

I'm merely correcting Jett's source's spelling of the word.

The only exciting thing about this news is the fact that it is news.
