‘From Paris With Love’ stops shooting

Filming for Pierre Morel’s upcoming thriller “From Paris With Love” has been officially suspended, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Principal photography was shot down in a Parisian neighborhood when members of the production team found ten cars belonging to Europacorp burned out by arsonists.

Based on a script by Luc Besson and Adi Hasak, the film centers on an embassy worker who encounters an American secret agent during a risky mission in the French capital.

John Travolta and Jonathan Rhys Meyers were on location for the shoot of the project, which is produced on a $55 million budget.

According to the trade, Europacorp said only that filming of the housing project scenes is suspended pending a review.

This is sad to hear, but not surprising. After all, Paris the world capital for burned out cars by random idiots who don’t have anything better to do.
