‘Nailed’ resumes filming after pay dispute |
The filming of “Nailed,” the movie starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Biel being shot around Columbia, resumed today after a pay dispute shut down shooting over the weekend, the S.C. Film Commission said.
The Screen Actors Guild on Friday pulled its members, including Gyllenhaal and Biel, after film producers did not keep enough money in accounts to pay actors, The New York Times reported today.
Filming resumed today, said Kara Borie, a spokeswoman for the S.C. Film Commission. She would not confirm any of the other details of the Times report.
She referred questions to the film’s publicist, who said no statements were being made at this time.
The determination of cash rebates — part of the S.C. incentive packages offered to productions bringing in more than $1 million — given “Nailed” will be based on an audit to be completed by the Film Commission within 30 days of the final wrap of the film, Borie said.
Shooting in Columbia is at about the half-way point. It began in mid-April and is expected to finish in about a month.
Efforts by the Times to reach David Bergstein, a principal of Capitol Films, which is helping to back the movie, over the weekend were unsuccessful.
Word of the production’s troubles was first reported on Deadlinehollywooddaily.com.

I told you, my bad feelings about the movie wouldn’t make much difference, and eventually everything would go back to normal! LOL
At least Jake will now have a few more millions in his bank account - I’m sure he deserves it!
