SARS Thriller
17 Oct 2010 - Last week Hollywood Director Steven Soderbergh re-created flashbacks of the SARS era in the territory, while filing for his new blockbuster movie Contagion. The action thriller about the spread of a deadly virus starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Matt Damon, Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Marion Cotillard is among the handful production that have been allowed to film in Hong Kong's International Airport's no-go zones. One scene filmed at the airport featured Paltrow and Coutillard playing WHO experts. Earlier last week, both ladies were seen at Aberdeen's Tai Pak Floating Restaurant, which was transformed into a casino set. Other scenes were filmed in To Kwa Wan, Mong Kok and Shek O. Around 300 people were hired for a scene in a To Kwa wan factory doubling as the home of "patient zero". The 300 amateur actors played an army of medical staff who turned up to sterilize the apartment.
