Interview with Francis Lawrence

WRCBtv talks to Francis Lawrence, the director of “Water for Elephants” while filming in Tennessee.

CHATTANOOGA (WRCB) – Filming for the movie Water For Elephants is wrapping up in Chattanooga.

The last action scenes at the Railroad Museum are almost complete.

The crew took a lunch break late Tuesday afternoon and we had an exclusive interview with director Francis Lawrence, who had nothing bad to say about Chattanooga. He didn’t even complain about the heat.

“Chattanooga’s been an A. A Plus. It’s been fun. We’ve had beautiful weather, beautiful scenery, great people, great crews, great hotel, fantastic food… So it’s been a lot of fun.”

“Water for Elephants” Release Date

“Water for Elephants” Set Story by “Lucinda”

Jackie Zane who plays the beautiful and wonderful “Lucinda” is our featured ‘Extraordinary Extra’ today! She has written a warm, heartfelt and very informative account of her WFE filming experience. Enjoy! (Thank you, Jackie! You’re amazing!)

. First it was to base camp where after checking in and having breakfast I visited wardrobe, then hair and make-up. This is where a young man in smeared clown make-up is sitting next to me and we are making casual light talk. He extends his hand to me and says “I’m Rob, by the way!” Ahh I get to share the make-up trailer with Robert Pattinson. (So many young girls would love to be in my shoes.) He is the epitome of friendly, he is charming and witty with the tendency to giggle as he was being fitted in one silly looking wig after another. This superstar had no ego to speak of. He was gracious and above all….human. This was my first impression of him, but it repeated itself each day. We shared several conversations in the make-up trailer and he always made a point to say hello when on set.
