I know the geography is very different, but "movie magic" and all that.
I hope not...
Sassilive reported long ago that a wedding scene will take place at a beach location, but not in Maratea... the beach is at Marina di Pisticci - a location also confirmed by latest marketto's info - which is also in the Basilicata region. Italian production manager stated that they chose the Maratea coast for a sequence involving cars, and they chose it just because of the dramatic beauty of the landscape.
It's cool that from the beach spot featured in Cary's latest picture it would take more or less just 3 hours by car to Cubby's parents hometown.
EDIT: That's the Marina di Pisticci coastline, where the supposed wedding scene should take place.
So that deck will double as an interior, since those are windows overlooking that fabulous view. Interesting. Way to catch a view. Didn't someone say they caught sight of some green covered windows in Matera? Could they have been covered to match these?
I think that will be the interior of Bond’s hotel room, given the majestic view of the city.
Was thinking the same thing. And it appears to have some sort of balcony or veranda. It really does seem stunning. Maybe the exterior will be that building with the green covered windows, for cgi purposes.
(stomping, shouting, waving) .. *Wohoo!!, over here. I did!!*..
When scrolling through Matera on instagram there was a couple of pics with a crane and next to it, four 'green screen' coverered windows. It could be a potential location. At the same time it's on the other end of the old town and that steel rig they been building.

Found this. Is that the steel rig?

As for Matera itself it is a bloody fairytale landscape. Dead god it's beautiful
Craco location
I think they gonna stitch the Matera shoot and Craco together given the similarities
Someone hasn't played Agent Under Fire. ;))
Yes, well done indeed, @Contraband. Good research and good eyes.
I hope they make the best of it. It really is beautiful.
Perhaps. But...why go through all of that trouble when one can be built (probably cheaper) on a soundstage, with a greenscreen behind the windows? I think there's something else at work, here.
Maybe the chase begins there? Maybe one of the cars flies through that space?
The budget goes up every year and who knows when the next Bond film will come after this one. I wouldn't be surprised if they went all out with this film.
My Wife and I said having explored the Puglia region in the south we would be unlikely to return but Matera is an area of the south we would definitely return to at some point if possible.
I always assumed Matera was doubling for elsewhere but a landscape so beautiful should be showcased as itself rather than being represented as somewhere else.
Bond 25 is looking like a truly incredible looking film, hope the colours are going to pop after the drabness of SPECTRE.
Very intriguing....possibly throws water on the idea that the Valhalla belongs to Nomi. Maybe it's Rami Malek's?
Also this set...
I'm fairly certain that if it's being built, it's for the sole intention of being blown up.
That alone would make me very very happy.
I think that was just speculation.
Stupid idea: Villain maybe blowing up the wedding ceremony killing of the priest and M Swann with Bond pissed off, injured and bloody chasing after on foot that leads to a car chase
Nah.. perhaps not
Edit: Just remembered the wedding takes place on the beach.
