Phew, it’s been a long day, thank God we’re not being attacked by aliens,.. o, I think I spoke too soon. Although the title is BATTLE: LOS ANGELES, the alien invasion Vs. military movie directed by Jonathan Liebesman (Darkness Falls, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning), is being filmed in Louisiana and some set photos have showed up online, via io9 and slashfilm. The first one is of star Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight) snapped by Jonathan Hooff at the Camp Horno in the 53 area of Camp Pendleton.
The second photo is of an explosion, snapped by manwithscaryspouse. “Mushroom cloud of fire caused when production company explodes bus.” Sounds fun. This is firepower, none of that diplomatic Men In Black mumbo jumbo. View both images after this jump…
When unknown forces put the City of Angels under attack, it’s up to a Marine staff sergeant (Aaron Eckhart) and his new platoon to come to the rescue. As the invasion hits the streets of L.A., the Marines become our first and last line of defense against a highly powerful enemy. Bridget Moynahan (I, Robot), Michelle Rodriguez (Avatar) and Michael Peña (World Trade Center) co-star alongside an ensemble cast including Ramon Rodriguez and Ne-Yo.
