Filming Damsel with Robert Pattinson in UT
Nothing has been officially announced, but fans have figured out that Mia and Rob are filming a Western where a man who's looking for a fresh start pursues the woman of his dreams.
Production Weekly shows the movie, Damsel (as in Damsel in distress), directed by David Zellner, is set to film on July 12th, for 32 days. Cast of 5 with a lot of extras.
Rob and Mia have been seen in Park City several times, and a fan called the office where they do the local extra casting and got confirmation that they're in the film. They became friends when they filmed Maps to the Stars several years ago, and wanted to make Brimstone together, until Mia had to drop out and Rob had a conflict with another movie he already had a commitment to.
Salt Lake Tribune: “Damsel Productions will get $269,00 to $337,000 to film a Western, identified as ZB Pioneer Film, this summer in the Wasatch Mountains and Summit County. Driven by David and Nathan Zellner, this movie will have a cast of five, crew of 27 and 70 extras, whose 32 days of shooting will result in $1.35 million in spending.”
