Strange Cars, Strange Stars

Filmmaking can be strange sometimes and what turns out to be the stars of the show can sometimes be strange too. Take these recent press photos from Mercedes-Benz for instance.

The 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class Sport stars in one of the most massive pursuit sequences in London’s history on the set of NATIONAL TREASURE: BOOK OF SECRETS* from Walt Disney Pictures, in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Films. Pulling into theaters everywhere on December 21, the all new C-Class Sport demonstrates its exceptional athleticism as it’s pushed to its limits on the streets of London.

* This would be the sequel to National Treasure (2004); which I thought was pretty good actually. Good conspiracy theory fun.
