MELISSA George’s ship has finally come in, with the Hollywood-based Australian starlet on the ‘deck’ of her latest film Triangle yesterday.
Despite rain lashing the huge replica ocean-liner built on the Gold Coast Seaway wall at The Spit, filming began aboard the 55m, three-storey set on Monday for the $18million psychological thriller.
Weathering yesterday’s unusually gloomy conditions on the Gold Coast, the cameras kept rolling on the high but not-so dry structure.
The giant set took a few months to construct at the tip of the seaway wall but will be used for only a week of filming.
George was snapped yesterday being shuttled to the huge mock-up ship under the shelter of a golf cart.
In stark contrast to the relaxed surrounds, the former Home and Away star has been filming action sequences including fights on deck.
Melissa, 31, told The Courier-Mail recently that her star turn in Triangle was her most challenging role to date.
“It’s a tough role for me. Its about a woman with a mental disorder and the film is shown through three of her different personalities,” she said.
“So I’m working hard on this one.
“It’s me, myself and I on the set.”
George describes the film Triangle as “very Sybil meets Bourne Supremacy, if you can imagine that”. Source.
