World War Z Filming in Glasgow
Yesterday saw the centre of Glasgow transformed into downtown Philidelphia for filming of Brad Pitt's latest movie World War Z.
It will be filming there till the 31st August and streets in and around George Square have started to be totally transformed.

Over 1700 locals auditioned for the chance to be a Zombie extra in the movie as well.
I popped along last night and snapped a few photos of the progress. Its very strange seeing somewhere you know so well transformed in to a city thousands of miles away.

Local news managed to find some tourists from Philadelphia in George Square yesterday ... They looked bemused.

Re: World War Z Filming in Glasgow
Where are they going to find people able to play shambling, drooling, half-dead, disease ridden zombies in Glasgow???

Re: World War Z Filming in Glasgow
My Grandfather was born in Philadelphia and lived there until he was 14. I've always wanted to see it so it was nice of them to bring it to me
I jogged from Uddingston to Philadelphia in under one hour and a half this morning so the half marathon should be like a sprint for me.
