Will The Expendables come back for a return visit of the Hotels in Rio de Janeiro?

By Kathryn Lopez


This is a discussion that will point out an evident trend, Brazil's footprint in the film industry is maturing. It's already been established that Rio de Janeiro will be holding both the World Cup as well as the Olympics. This in addition to Brazil's economic increase has had a vibrant effect on the Latin country's logistical potential.

No longer just a spot for a vacation or taking a holiday, apartments, flats and hotels are popping up that could easily offer accommodations to Hollywood's masses. Should additional big budget films appear to the shores of Copacabana and Ipanema. Over recent times, Incredible Hulk, starring Edward Norton was filmed in Rio de Janeiro as well as more recently Stallone's Expendables was also filmed in Brazil. Conceivably he'll be back to blow up a few more buildings and hotels.

After Elite Squad II, was released at theatres across Brazil in early October, taking in a record R$14 million (US$8.23 million) at the box-office receipts in its first weekend. As the follow up to the 2007 hit there was ample hoopla and hope, while also supplying yet more facts that Brazil's industry is not only escalating, it is pushing resourcefulness to the next level.

While Rio de Janeiro used to be just a place to take a vacation and visit the wonderful beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema, it would now seem to be that the type of real estate has improved. While it once was cost prohibitive for production companies to travel to Brazil to make their films it would now appear to be that the playing fields are shifting. Rentals of more sophisticated equipments are now accessible and Brazil now has artistic professionals to bring to the table. The industry is unquestionably growing. The fact that professionals can be found who live in the country in their own homes and apartments can clearly lower expenses, such as the bills you are likely to have in hotels.

So is Brazil set to be house of the Latin Hollywood? Could possibly be, at the rate that apartments and flats are being built, it's only reasonable that there is substantial progress taking place in all industries of Brazil's economy. While the availability of accommodations is obvious, it can also be noted that contributions that can be made by skilled artists and workers is also developing. Without a doubt, the artistic efforts to the film industry originating in Brazil will be something to keep an eye on in the coming years.
