Which hotels is Hollywood preparing to blow up in Rio de Janeiro

By Kathryn Lopez


This is a debate that will discuss an distinct trend, Brazil's presence in the film industry is increasing. It's already been identified that Rio de Janeiro will be holding both the World Cup and also the Olympics. This in addition to Brazil's economic progression has had a bold effect on the Latin country's logistical potential.

No longer just a place for a vacation or taking a holiday, apartments, flats and hotels are popping up that could easily provide accommodations to Hollywood's masses. Should more large budget films show up 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, premiered at cinemas 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 sequel to the 2007 hit there was lots of hype and hope, while also delivering yet more facts that Brazil's industry is not only escalating, it is pushing resourcefulness to the next level.

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

So is Brazil set to be residence of the Latin Hollywood? Might be, at the rate that apartments and flats are being built, it's only logical that there is major development taking place in all markets 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 maturing. 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.
