BadTaste.it sent in this report about the filming for Angels & Demons that is taking place at the Pantheon in Rome:
We’ve some fabulous pics from the Pantheon set of Angels and Demons, where today Ron Howard is shooting a few scenes of the movie. The scene I’ve seen shows Robert Langdon and Vittoria Vetra, played by Tom Hanks and Ayelet Zurer, approaching the Pantheon. I was surprised, because they dind’t seem to hurry too much (if you’ve read the book, you know they are not tourists there), but maybe it was just an impression and thanks to editing the scene will appear more fast-paced.
Anyway, I have to say I was also positively surprised by the athmosphere on the set, which was very easygoing and relaxed. As you can see from the images, the fans were allowed to stay very near the actors and Tom Hanks was a treat. In fact, at the end of every take, he was hugging security guards or playing with fans.

Columbia Pictures’ follow-up to The Da Vinci Code, directed by Ron Howard, is targeted for a May 15, 2009 release.
