‘Savages’ filming underway in L.A.

Savages’ all star cast includes Blake Lively, John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Taylor Kitsch, Aaron Johnson, Salma Hayek, Benicio del Toro, and Emile Hirsch.

Today, they are filming at the Malibu Riding and Tennis Club. Look out for signs that read PAQU.

Savages currently has a release date of September 28, 2012.

  1. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE “SAVAGES” IS SHOOTING ON JULY 21-23?
    AND WHERE “THE TO DO LIST” IS SHOOTING ON JULY 21-23?
    THANK YOU 🙂

    • Hey @ChristineP, this is really late but they filmed Blake Lively at Galleria Mall in Redondo beach for two days July 25 and 26. That’s where she is in the mini cooper. I was able to take a picture with her on Monday before TMZ and her two big securities came in before the mall opened. She was very genuine and humble.

  2. I was at the mall where this movie isbeen filmed. Is great the director is filminglocally instead of goingout to another state. Emily Hirsh looks amazing!!

  3. I was in Dana Point yesterday (on Amber Lantern) and they were filming this movie on the cliff overlooking Dana Point Harbor. We had just missed Travolta … but they were supposed to continue filming there today.
