Lee shot the movie in 3D and 120-frames-per-second (fps), compared to the usual 24fps, using some of the most expensive and modern digital equipment available for movie shoots. Also in the film are Clive Owen as the head of the government organization “GEMINI,” as well as Mary Elizabeth Winstead (10 Cloverfield Lane) and Benedict Wong (Doctor Strange) as Henry’s allies. Smith plays Henry, a former government assassin, as well as his younger clone who is sent to kill him. Although many productions have shot on campus before, Gemini Man comes with estimated budget of over $150 million, is directed by Ang Lee (Life of Pi), produced by Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Carribbean), and stars an A-list cast. The scene was shot back in April of this year, with Smith posting a selfie-style video from campus on his YouTube channel introducing Gemini Man’s first trailer on April 23rd. Also in the shot are a food truck, MTA bus (likely a B11 given the model) and the West Quad Center, which is in the middle of the movie’s final frame before the scene fades to credits.
