The film is currently being shot at Docklands Studios Melbourne in Melbourne, Australia. Filming began on May 13, 2010, based at the Docklands Studios Melbourne in the Docklands. In July 2010, Jason Statham's scenes were shot at the Brecon Beacons in Wales. (The British S.A.S. regiment trains there and that is thought to be one of the reasons why it was chosen as a location for the movie.) In May 2010, it was announced that Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro would join the cast, shooting for ten days in a small role as an assassin. De Niro filmed a scene in Melbourne's Spring Street set in 1970s Paris.[4]
