Nicolas Cage in Greece for filming of ‘The Carpenter’s Son’

·

Nicolas Cage is currently in Greece, specifically in the town of Megara, for the production of his upcoming film, The Carpenter’s Son, according to protothema.gr.

The movie, in which Cage stars, explores the childhood of Jesus. Originally, the crew had planned to shoot scenes in caves around Megara. However, an unexpected incident disrupted those plans.

During filming, Cage was attacked by a swarm of wild bees in one of the caves, forcing the production team to seek an alternative location.

This isn’t the first time Cage has filmed in Greece. He previously worked alongside Penélope Cruz and Christian Bale in Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, which was filmed on the island of Kefalonia.
