Transformers 3 will be packing its bags to head to Milwaukee, Wisconsin according to OnMilwaukee.com and http://milwaukee.bizjournals.com, TF3 production will bring 150 cast and crew to the Milwaukee Art Museum and and Tower Automotice site on July 12-13. No details on exactly what is being filmed or with what cast members.
A casting call will be held Saturday, June 26, 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m., at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center in the Wright Ballroom on the fourth floor. If you're a female or male "trendy executive type," 18 or over, you're invited to show up (with a pen, please).
"We're really excited to showcase the Art Museum in what will be one of the most anticipated blockbuster films for next summer," said Milwaukee Art Museum Director Dan Keegan.
"The film will give the venue worldwide exposure during our 10th year anniversary celebration of the Santiago Calatrava designed Quadracci Pavilion."
The Tower Automotive site on Capitol Drive will also be utilized, but don't bother showing up at either location. The sets are closed to the public and the museum will be closed to the public on July 12.
"We are thrilled that Milwaukee can host the cast and crew of 'Transformers 3' and we recognize the economic benefits and pride of place that blockbuster movies bring to Milwaukee and Wisconsin," said Dave Fantle, from VISIT Milwaukee and president of the Film Wisconsin board.
"Logistical planning for the film began last November, and the cooperation between the city, the county and the private sectors have been tremendous help."
UPDATE-- http://www.freep.com/article/20100622/ENT01/100622041/-Transformers-3-to-film-in-Detroit-in-August is reporting that Transformers returns to the Motor City once again in August. The franchise last visited Detroit, Michigan for ze first Transformers film, primarily at Michigan Central Station. Filming will be for two to three weeks but no specifics on locations that production will be using. Detroit now joins Bay's other visits. Maybe his next line-up will be...Kennedy Space Center?
