A spokesperson for Asylum, the studio behind Sharknado 2, says filming done last month in Lockport may or may not end up in the upcoming summer movie.
"We were shooting some stock scenes that get used in a number of Asylum productions, and I think part of the confusion stemmed from them being directed by one of the Asylum's directors who also did Sharknado," Rene Ridinger said this afternoon via email. "We're not sure exactly where they'll end up yet, as the company shoots about two to three movies a month."
When filming was originally done in the Lockport Caves and Underground Boat Rides on April 6, it was said to be for an upcoming Asylum project called "Alligator Attack." Later it was rumored that the scenes were actually for the sequel to Sharknado, which is due to come out on July 30. Filming was also done in Buffalo at the same time.
Sharknado 2 will feature Tara Reid and Ian Ziering, reprising their roles. It will also feature Vivica A. Fox, Kelly Osbourne, Mark McGrath, Billy Ray Cyrus, Andy Dick, and former WWE superstar Kurt Angle.
Whether Lockport will also be featured remains to be seen.
"Sharknado (2) is in post-production now, and I can let you know if anything ends up in the film, but it may be a few weeks," said Ridinger.
