Description

Film opens August 24, 2012. Visit http://www.snoutypig.com for movie news, articles, trailers and more. This video contains footage of Joseph Gordon-Levitt right after a real life accident with a New York Taxi cab that happened while filming. Levitt required 31 stitches after going through the rear windshield of the cab. You can see him bleeding a few seconds after the 2 minutes mark while you can see the can and windshield at around the 1:15 mark. You can also see how some of the stunts were done and that Levitt did some of his own stunts. After the "behind the scenes" segment, the video also features a trailer for the movie. Premium Rush is a film about Wilee (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a bicycle messenger in New York City described as a hardcore cyclist that uses single-gear bikes with no brakes. His life gets more complicated when a routine 'premium rush' delivery turns into a life or death chase through the streets of Manhattan. The film also stars Michael Shannon, Dania Ramirez, and Jamie Chung. We are excited about this movie and after watching Levitt perform some of his own stunts and witnessing the bloody results, we are impressed enough. I know that fixed gear bicycles are pretty dangerous... Severed fingers for example: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/fixed.html#fing
