VALLETTA (ITALPRESS/MNA) – Top actor and Oscar-winning director Mel Gibson is in Malta on a five-day visit for discussions with the Maltese authorities in connection with a potential film project. The Maltese Prime Minister Robert Abela met Gibson and the production team on Wednesday to discuss the upcoming production.
The Australian actor is among an 11-member team scouting Malta following an invitation by the Malta Film Commission. It is understood that Gibson is scouting for locations to film the sequel to 2004’s The Passion of the Christ, which he co-wrote, produced, and directed.
The new film Resurrection is expected to bring together several actors of the original cast of The Passion of Christ, featuring Jim Caviezel and Francesco De Vito. Reports say the film will be shot in Israel, Morocco and Italy.
