Mexico: The governor of the Mexican Gulf coast state of Veracruz says Mel Gibson will donate sets from the movie he`s currently filming to a future museum.
Gov Fidel Herrera says several sets were built inside the Ignacio Allende prison in the port city of Veracruz and that the jail will be converted into a museum once Gibson is done filming. In January, 1,500 inmates were transferred out of the prison to make room for Gibson`s film, which began production this week and is tentatively titled "How I Spent My Summer Vacation." Herrera made the announcement Thursday. Gibson filmed his 2006 Mayan-language movie "Apocalypto" in Veracruz. Herrera said Gibson also donated some of the sets from that movie. Bureau Report
