We already heard that The Dark Knight Rises will be filming on Wall Street this weekend, but it looks like they’ll be filming in midtown Manhattan on Friday too.

One of our readers, RL, spotted No Parking signs for “MAGNUS REX” (TDKR’s working title) filming on West 58th Street between 7th and 5th Ave in NYC on Friday, 10/28 for 6 AM to Midnight.

In addition to this new location info, we also heard a few rumors about the big scene they’ll be filming on Wall Street. There are expected to be more than 1000 extras used in the scene which will be set in a Gotham that has been taken over by Bane. After months of chaos the cops return and the “good guys” battle it out with the “bad guys” for the streets of Gotham. Tom Hardy and Christian Bale are both expected to be there in full costumes as Bane and Batman. Its also rumored that they will begin rehearsing for the shoot in a couple day at Riis Park.

Below are a few photos taken inside the movie’s production offices too (I love the dinosaurs!):

 

If you have any scoop about the shoot or catch them filming later this week, let us know about it at olv@onlocationvacations.com!

Dang! I was in midtown Manhattan back in mid-June. We saw them shooting MEN IN BLACK III but would have MUCH RATHER seen the final opus for Magnus Rex. Dang it!

Saw “MagnusRex” Tuesday 11/1 green signs today on 33rd / Park Ave, and about six PortaPotties being settled onto 33rd – is that important?
