Primera Hora has a post up on the Replicas shoot along with a gallery of photos. The article is in Spanish and translates well with the google translator. The highlights are below.
- Exterior scenes were shot in a park in the coun try, in a residence in San Patricio in Guaynabo, in a department store in Carolina and Cantera, and around the Rio Grande de Manati.
- The accident scene where the family dies was shot over several days along the Rio Grande de Manati and involved the entire production crew.The scenes were filmed in the evening hours.
- In the accident scene, the car with the family goes down into the ravine and into the mighty river. Cranes and heavy equipment was required for the filming and the road from Manati to Ciales was closed.
- In the scene, Keanu Reeves was driving a black car. His family.played by Alice Eve, Emily Alyn Lind and Emjay Anthony were also in the car.
- Although it was a closed set, they were able to get a few photos of the filming which finished in the early morning hours.
- For the scene, the car that was being driven was mounted on a dolly and a second vehicle which was split in half was used to for the scenes sequence and special effects.
- Reeves was friendly on the set with out the special requirements and isolation often seen with other movie stars. During the long hours of waiting to shoot scenes, he was seen laughing and joking with the cast and crew.
Note: While the article says the photos were taken on September 16, they appear to be from different dates. In one of the photos, Keanu is in khaki pants, a black shirt and jacket and appears to have been taken in a building – this is similar to the description given in the article on his birthday celebration.
