The Romans Are Coming!

‘Epic’ is a term too often used nowadays but few could argue that Hail Caesar! currently in the final days of shooting at Capitol Pictures, is undeserving of this epithet, writes Thora Thacker.

“An army of technicians and actors, and top notch artistic people are working hard to bring to the screen our biggest release of the year,” explains Capitol’s Eddie Mannix.  “Hail, Caesar! is a prestige picture with one of the biggest stars in the world: Baird Whitlock.”

Few movies take up not one but TWO stages on a studio lot, but then Hail Caesar! is no ordinary movie: it’s the most expensive picture Capitol has ever made. It looks - for now at least - as though the greatest story ever told is in safe hands.
