Tom Hiddleston’s ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’ filming moves to Germany by CHRISTINE M on JULY 24, 2012 (ON LOCATION VACATIONS)

Late last week it was reported that filming had already begun in Germany, taking place in Hamburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Cologne. German news outlets also say that sets were “sealed off” in part because of writer/director Jim Jarmusch’s “reclusive” nature.

Jarmusch’s vampire film is slated for release in 2013 and co-stars Tilda Swinton, Mia Wasikowska, and Anton Yelchin.. Filming is set to move to Morocco and New York City in the coming weeks.

Here’s what do know, the film is set in Detroit and Tangiers and will be filmed in Michigan, Western Germany, and Morocco this summer. Tom Hiddleston, Anton Yelchin, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt, and Tilda Swinton will star in Only Lovers which, according to various industry sources, isn’t't expected to begin shooting until mid-July.

According to the Detroit Free Press,  the movie’s director, Jim Jarmusch, was spotted in Detroit yesterday where he has been “looking at southeast Michigan locations.” They also note that filming will only last “a week or two” in Michigan, and that the film has not yet been approved for the state’s tax incentive.

Foreign Box Office: 'John Carter' Repeats as No. 1 for Second Consecutive Weekend But Slips in Key Overseas Markets (THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER)

1:32 PM PDT 3/18/2012 by Frank Segers

Getting a gentler box office reception on the foreign theatrical circuit, Disney’s John Carter took the No. 1 spot overseas for the second consecutive weekend, grossing $40.7 million from 54 offshore markets and lifting its international gross total to $126.1 million.

Weekend action for the $250-million-plus live action animation fantasy-adventure directed by Andrew Stanton was down more than 40% from its foreign debut last round. It slipped from first place to No. 4 in the U.K., where it took in an estimated $1.8 million from some 460 spots for a market cume of an estimated $6.3 million.

In Australia, where Carter also opened No. 1 last round, the film placed second this time, dropping about 51% to an estimated $1.6 million on the weekend. Carter also dropped from No. 2 to No. 3 in South Korea and Germany, from second to fourth in France, and from third to fifth place in Italy.

Overall, Carter’s overseas reception remains considerably kinder so far than the comparable $13.5 weekend tally and $53.2 million cume-to-date meted out in the U.S. and Canada.
