Because it wouldn’t be right if the Green Hornet started to move smoothly now… one of the Hornet’s Black Beauty cars gets roughed up on the set shot.
An avid fan seems to have caught some of the footage of the car during a scene, and during a second take, the driver hits another car and then parks it firmly against a concrete barrier.
I hope they got the footage they needed on the first shot, as it might take a little bit of effort to get that car fixed. Pretty painful to watch a classic ride like that get pounded, especially on a shot where it looks like it wasn’t intended to get banged up.
After all the casting issues, directors, and even Nic Cage walking away from the project, I wonder if Seth saw the car get punched and just shrug and say “of course it did…”
