Bourne Legacy, the fourth installment to the “Bourne” movie franchise, has started filming in Manila around 5:00 a.m. Wednesday, January 11.

ABS-CBN’s primetime newscast Bandila took a sneak peek of some action scenes at Leveriza corner Quirino Avenue in Manila where the film’s star Rachel Weisz was spotted in a police chase scene.

Bandila also reported that 400 residents were hired to be an “extra” in the shooting. One resident named Ferdinand Chavez happily told correspondent Gretchen Malalad that he was hired as an extra and paid P500 and his task is to ride a motorcycle in a quick scene.

It was also reported that Filipino actors Lou Veloso, Madeleine Nicholas and John Arcilla were hired to appear in the Bourne film.
