The production of 007: Spectrum sparked a tourist boom in Mexico City
The shooting of the movie "007: Spectrum" caused a real tourist boom in the capital of Mexico. This is reported by The Hollywood Reporter. According to the Mexico City authorities, the occupancy of hotels in the historic center of the capital of the country increased by 30 percent, and the total attendance - by 53 percent. In addition, the movie's producers agreed to pay $ 2,500 per day to 225 commercial enterprises in downtown Mexico City, which were forced to close for several hours while movieing. The work of the movie crew brought increased attention to the Mexican capital in both national and foreign media, which also provided indirect publicity for the attractions of Mexico City. Recall that earlier information was circulated that the creators of "Bondiana" entered into an agreement with the Mexican government, according to which the movie was supposed to improve the image of the capital in exchange for various benefits. Later, the production team denied the existence of such a contract, specifying only that it was about specific agreements with commercial partners in the Mexican capital. The movie stars Dave Batista, Rafe Fiennes, Monica Bellucci, Daniel Craig, Christoph Waltz, Lea Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, Andrew Scott, Naomi Harris, Rory Kinnery and other actors.
