Most of that stuff, except maybe the dam sequence, was real.
movie had a $2 million budget for cars. Can you give us a ballpark figure for how much of this film’s budget was yours to play with?: It’s really a very difficult question because there’s so many other elements that go into that. For instance, shipping, you know, we’ve put probably 60 cars on planes to get to different countries. So it’s easier for me to try to itemize just one car, like a ‘70 Dodge Charger that we build, if I just go material-only is probably $60,000.
And the good thing about our franchise is a hero car looks like a stunt car. So it’s not like we have to hide the rollcage. The cars have rollcage, harnesses, fuel cells—that’s how they are on screen.: Do the actors get to choose their cars? Do you read the script and say, you know, this guy would be perfect for this car?: I will get the script, I’ll read it, and I will try to put what I feel is the best car for the character, for the environment, into that place.
