Well, it is one of the most awaited movies of this year and as the shooting started Darkhorizons.com were lucky enough to find one eye-witness to one scene shot in downtown Cleveland.
The source, Con-Man told what he saw: The scene they're shooting involves a Manhattan Armored Vehicle racing down the street out of control, slamming into practically every prop car along the street. I got a chance to talk to one of the crew and he spilled a few details about the scene.
Apparently, Sandman is covering the armored truck, seeping his way into the cab in order to take over the wheel. The guards, being blinded by the sand, lose control and wreck the truck into cars, cabs, and whatever else gets in it's way. The scene is supposed to appear somewhere in the beginning of the movie, seemingly as Sandman's first encounter with Spidey, who will be added into the scene in post-production, web-slinging down the street to catch up to the truck. Thomas Haden Church, Tobey McGuire, nor Sam Raimi were on site."
Cleveland was chosen for shooting after a tight competition with Detroit, but some of the sequences are also to be shot in New York City.
As May approaches, Spider-Man fans will be able to eye-witness some New York action, if the schedule for the shooting is not to be modified.
