More Bethlehem Set Images and Information

It has been a busy day with galleries of the first day and night of shooting of Transformers showing up all over the web (and here of course). In addition it appears that two new cast members are coming on board soon, with Aaron Hill and Matthew Marsden.

As far as additional information, according to a report from the local news station WFMX-TV (video here), the Bethlehem shoot represents the opening of the movie. This info was revealed in an interview with Ian Bryce and Lorenzo di Bonaventura. Sounds like the movie will open with a bang.

From the Bethlehem Daily Star Blog comes the above pic of Bay on set and verification that Josh Duhamel is on site but considering the military nature of the scene and lack of sightings of other stars I am thinking they are the only two core cast likely to show up.

As for vehicles, reports have said the three wheeled bikes are being ridden by soldiers so probably not Transformers (or Arcee) Also there are 2 Apache and two Blackhawks being used.

Final note - the explosions are expected to begin today.

Now on to galleries. Below are more pictures taken at the site, the ones with "WireImage" watermark where found on the gettyimages.com (I like the first two day vs night images). Thanks to Roxygr for telling me how. Also further below are four pics from George K that show copters chasing each other for a scene. Thank you for the pics.




In addition to the above, you can find a gallery of pics that show the helicoptors and more flying around here and here via Allspark.com. Finally AICN has their own pics here.
