Strickland House in Blast from the Past!

May 10th, 2007

It has been revealed that the scenes shot at Strickland House this week will be involved a sequence depicting the bombing of Darwin. In the final stages of the shoot, a scene was shot to simulate the bombing of Darwin’s Government House. Luhrmann used dummies to stand in for what we assume will be numerous casualties! It has also been confirmed that filming did take place at Camelot during the Sydney shoot. Back in December 2006, Kidman, Jackman and Luhrmann were pictured rehearsing there, but it was unconfirmed if Camelot would feature in the film itself. We now know that filming took place at the stables, and it has been speculated that the Just Jared picture seen here of Kidman in riding gear was taken at Camelot.
