Nicolas Cage returns for
National Treasure: Book of Secrets as Ben Gates, and this time the
treasure seeker/mystery unraveller is taking his work overseas. The Eiffel
Tower, Buckingham Palace, the other Statue of Liberty — there’s no shortage of international locales in the upcoming action/adventure and Rotten Tomatoes
is hosting an
exclusive featurette showing off each of them! Who’s ready for a Eurotrip?
It’s Xtreme World History 1A as Gates and his merry
sidekicks (Diane
Kruger, Jon
Voight, and
Justin Bartha) jet around the world after a recovered page from John Wilkes
Booth’s diary pegs Gates’s ancestor as a co-conspirator in
Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. In the
featurette, cast and crew (including Cage, director
Jon Turteltaub,
and producer
Jerry
Bruckheimer) comment on shooting internationally, accompanied with shots of
Paris and a car chase in London. The video also shows us some sweeping angles of
Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota and our nation’s capital once the plot of Book
of Secrets‘ leads the action back to the backwater burgs of America.
Click here for the exclusive featurette. The mysteries of
National Treasure: Book of Secrets will be unveiled on December 21,
2007.
