Sunday, Aug. 7 (Heinz Field) Filming continued for the second and final day inside of Heinz Field on Sunday, with the main scene focusing on the explosion of one of the stadium's suites.
While more than 10,000 extras were used on Saturday, only around 700 were asked to return for Sunday's shoot. Most were dressed as fans, while some played the role of photographers, food and beverage vendors or business people. Some even got to do work in front of a green screen. The only prop the extras were allowed to take home, and not everyone got one, was one of the Gotham Rogues bandannas. Wonder what the film will do with the rest of the cool gear?
Several IMAX cameras were used to film the destruction of suite, which presumably held the mayor of Gotham City, or another important Gotham official. We'll have to wait to see the movie to know if he was able to escape safely. Stunt men and women, along with a small group of extras, were also part of the fiery shot.
Bane and his mercenaries also returned on Sunday and more shots were filmed as Bane made his entrance onto the field.
Noticeably absent from both days of filming at Heinz Field was the star of the show, Batman. If I had to guess, though, I'd say Bane won't go unpunished for this assault against Gotham City.
