Luc Besson has cut short the filming of Lucy in Taiwan.
Several scenes from the Scarlett Johansson-starring film have been canceled following the harassment of the cast and crew by paparazzi in Taipei, reports China Times (via The Hollywood Reporter).
Reporters have swarmed the set of the action thriller since the Avengers actress arrived last week.
Besson's crew were nearly involved in an accident with a car driven by members of the local press.
Taipei mayor Hau Lung-bin said in a statement that the "dangerous action" occurred due to the media neglecting prearranged coverage arrangements.
Besson is considering returning to Europe before the weekend.
Lucy tells the tale of a drug mule (Johansson) who gains superpowers after coming into contact with an experimental drug.
The film is scheduled for release in 2014.
Her global starpower.
Where is Sammi ugh like who cares that Beyst is not releasing.
Ain't Them Bodies Saints was a bit underwhelming but Rooney totally fit the theme so I'm looking forward to her in the next Malick movie. What kind of flawless promising career?
