Weather Causes Delay in ‘Olympus Has Fallen’ Movie Filming

Yesterday's nasty weather -- and the threat for more of that today -- has shifted local movie-filming schedules a bit.  I talked about that and other topics with local Film Office Director Arlena Acree.  You can find tomorrow's filming schedules below, which will be followed weather permitting.

Filming schedule for "Olympus Has Fallen":

THURSDAY, JULY 12TH

1-7 p.m. -- Interruptions of traffic on Texas, Marshall, Milam and McNeill

2-9 p.m. -- Closure of Milam St. between Marshall and McNeill for special effects.  Don't be alarmed if you hear gunfire or explosions and see smoke!
