Lights, camera…action in Caboolture!
Hollywood actor Brian Austin Green has certainly shone the spotlight on Caboolture after stopping by to film a scene for an upcoming movie at the Caboolture Historical Village.
Green, who many may know from his days as David Silver on the teen hit television show Beverly Hills 90210, is starring in an Australian comedy action film called Zombie Plane. Filming took place at the village in mid-March after the excitement of Tropical Cyclone Alfred had subsided, with a movie production team and more than a dozen cast members involved.
Caboolture Historical Village Events/Functions/Sales and Marketing Manager Saskia Huismans said the village is a great spot that can be shared locally and on a global level.
“The Caboolture Historical Village has so much to offer as a backdrop for photography and filming with so many different types of locations,” Saskia said. “This was the fourth film crew to utilise the village in the last 12 months, with two student film productions and one independent film using a variety of areas last year.”
A Thrilling Production Experience
The Zombie Plane cast and crew were at the village from 6am to 8pm creating an atmosphere in one of the buildings that was worlds apart from how it looks on any other day of the week. Green was the top cast member filming the cameo for this scene and was described as “a thoroughly charming gentleman”. Other cast members included the likes of Nicky Whelan (Neighbours), Steven Grives (Highlander II) and Lucy Barrett (Charmed).
For those lucky enough to be at the Caboolture Historical Village during filming, seeing the volume of equipment and people involved with a production of this level was an experience that was openly shared. The filming visitors showed great respect for what the team does at the village and the history they have worked extremely hard to preserve.
Following on from this latest and very high-profile experience, the Caboolture Historical Village looks forward to other filming and photography opportunities to showcase the buildings and displays they have ready to share.
