How Caple Jr. and Paramount obtained several iconic R33 Nissan Skylines, six Porsche 911s, and more for the film’s action scenes.
spoke with Caple Jr. and learned about some of the challenges that surface while making a massive sci-fi film with rare vehicles that are also decades old. Generally speaking, vehicle-centric films require several copies of each car for different duties like stunts, close up shots, chases and more.We wondered if the R33 Skyline GT-R and Porsche RS 3.8 made Caple Jr. 's job more difficult.," said Caple Jr."For the 911, Porsche helped out with that tremendously.
Caple said among the six 911s used in the film, the two rentals were used for close up shots and other shots when the vehicle doesn't need to move. The rest were gutted and modified for chase sequences. One 911 in particular went through an unorthodox transformation—no pun intended."There's one we had to rig to make sure it could drive backwards. There's a car chase sequence in our film over the Williamsburg Bridge that is fully backwards with the Porsche 911.
"We built a lot of it from scratch," Caple says."We got the foundation of the Skyline, and then we found different parts throughout production. I remember getting emails saying 'Guess what? We got this part, we got that part,' and everyone was so stoked."So, the crew figured out how to source rare vehicles but what about the stunts? Driving 30 to 40 year old cars in high speed situations seems like a recipe for problems.
"There were moments in which if we injured the car in any way, we would have to stop production and finish off the next day," says Caple Jr."We probably went through like, two cars that day [filming in Cusco] and then we would have to go find something else to shoot."We asked if there were any accidents on set due to pushing the aging cars to their limits but nohowever, weren't always so lucky."We had to be very cautious," says Caple Jr.
"It broke out on the internet and people were making comments like 'Optimus is past his prime!' I was like 'that's the price we gotta pay for pushing these cars to their limit' but nothing dangerous. Our drivers were so damn good."Hearing that Caple Jr. pushed so hard with real vehicles and practical effects is a very good sign for a good time. If nothing else, seeing a Porsche 911 Carrera 3.
