As you might know the new Mission: Impossible 5 and Spectre are to be appearing in a few months or rather at the end of 2015. Both films contain scenes which were filmed in Austria. Mission: Impossible 5 for instance was filmed in Vienna at the Opera House, amongst others countries, of course. By the way, it is not the first time that Tom Cruise was in Austria because of a movie. With Knight and Day starring Cameron Diaz he was in Salzburg for some scenes. Tom Cruise somehow feels attracted to Austria, doesn't he? In my opinion this is great. It's no harm when some celebrities come to Austria and if it's only for a movie and just for a few days, making Austria a little more familiar to the people... Spectre in turn set some scenes in East Tyrol. The crew waited for the time when a lot of snow is falling. I think the scenes required this grayish and stormy atmosphere. Daniel Craig, formally known as Bond, James Bond, even said: "You have so much snow, snow, snow ..." As far as I am informed some scenes were even set in the Alps in the skiing region in Sölden. If you ask me it is great and excellent publicity for Austria when celebrities come here because it is very small and unknown, often to be
mixed up with Germany or rather Australia. When famous actors and/or actresses make a movie
here in Austria, people might recognize it when watching the final result: Oh, right, that is in Austria, that
little country in the middle of Europe. I think Austria is a beautiful country and absolutely worth knowing it, not to mention living here. :)
All right, I hope you know a little bit more now about the filming in Austria of these two great upcoming movies. ;)
Bye and have a nice day!
