Wondering why the newly released film Red Notice is ranking number one on Maltese Netflix today? Well, this could be your answer…
The streaming service’s latest blockbuster, starring Hollywood favourites Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds, gave our island a cameo of sorts.
As the three principle actors end up together on a boat towards the end of a film, hawk-eyed viewers spotted the Maltese flag flying proudly on the vessel’s stern.
Red Notice cost producers a whopping €130-170 million and was released in American cinemas on 5th November.
Writer-director Rawson Marhsall’s action-packed comedy follows FBI Profiler John Hartley (Dwayne Johnson) as he embarks on a mission to hunt down and capture con-man Nolan Booth (Ryan Reynolds).
Hartley’s pursuit lands him in a pickle, and he is thus forced to work with Booth himself to trap art thief ‘The Bishop’, played excellently by Gal Gadot.
Red Notice was primarily filmed in US states Atlanta and Georgia, although certain scenes saw the cast and crew travel to Paris, Spain, and Italy
