'Chain Reaction' returns

Reprinted from the Argonne News, March 25, 1996.

Filming of the 20th Century Fox action thriller, "Chain Reaction," will continue at Argonne-East beginning on Tuesday, April 2.

According to assistant location manager Larry Byrne, shooting will be done outdoors on April 2 and 3, weather permitting. Scenes will be filmed in the 360 area, and are expected to feature the landing of a helicopter containing "federal agents." Exact sites will be determined following an aviation safety review of the shooting plans.

Employees should be able to watch the filming from a location to be designated later; more details are expected in next week's issue of Argonne News.

Following completion of the outdoor scenes, filming will continue indoors on a closed set.

The film, directed by Andrew Davis, features actors Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, and Fred Ward. Scenes including actor Morgan Freeman have been completed, and he is not expected to return to Argonne for the April filming.
