San Andreas

Dwayne Scala Johnson plays Ray, who works as a pilot in the Los Angeles Fire Department and has been divorced for some time. But when chaos begins around him, he teams up with his wife to save their daughter. The steam has to fly across the state, while the San Andreas Fault opens up and triggers a powerful 9-magnitude earthquake. The former couple does not know for sure whether their daughter is alive, but nevertheless embark on a dangerous journey from Los Angeles to San Francisco. However, the chosen path turns out to be much more dangerous than it seemed at first glance, and the disaster is much larger. Read more The San Andreas tectonic plate is actually quite a dangerous part of California. Seismologists have been predicting a strong earthquake for many years. And such spontaneous troubles happen there, however, not as strong as in the film. The New Line Cinema studio began developing the film in 2011. Then the creators said that the film will be in 3D. However, the script, which was ready at the beginning of the year, was rewritten in the summer of 2012. Director Brad Peyton had already signed a contract with the studio at that time that he would be the director of "The San Andreas Rift". Casting began in the fall of 2013 when Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson agreed to play the role of a rescue helicopter pilot. Casting continued until the summer of the following year. Filming took place in two stages. Initially, the team worked in the USA, which happened in June-July 2013. Later, work on the "San Andreas Fault" was transferred to Australia. At the same time, the creators had to wait until the historical epic "Gods of Egypt" was filmed in the locations they needed. It is interesting that the official poster of the film repeats the poster of the film "Vertical Limit" released in 2000. There, an avalanche acted as a natural aggressor.
