The president of the Rio Film Commission Srgio S Leito has confirmed that Breaking Dawn will be filming there in November. The news was posted by the president on his twitter account. Here's what he had to say (google translate version):
Breaking Dawn will be shot in Rio in November. With full support of the Rio Film Commission. For security reasons I can not say when and where.
The Mayor and Governor Eduardo Paes Cabral directly engaged to enable the filming of Dawn in the River Plate Gol!
An estimated investment of U.S. $2 million into the economy of Rio seems all right to come and Dawn team is filmed here.
Can not say anything else. I count on your understanding. I think Rio is consolidating as a destination for international productions!
All security measures will be taken to ensure a smooth shoot. The City Council and Gov. of the State will provide needed support.
Has any of you guys ever been to Brazil or are you a resident? Its such a beautiful place and all I can say is broken headboards….Feathers….. I'll leave the rest to your imagination
*Important* If you do live in Brazil or know somebody that lives there and has information on where filming will take place. Please DO NOT post the location in the comments section.
