I do not know much. I do know that he was filming in Honk Kong and then in Shanghai. There was something that covered a bit of this...
Hollywood’s $300 million Production Sets the Stage in Hong Kong
Hollywood’s $300-million sci-fi Ultraviolet (directed by Kurt Wimmer) is at the height of pre-production in Hong Kong. Starring Milla Jovovich of The Fifth Element, the director decided to shoot 80% of the film in Hong Kong — a leap from 20% in the original plan, and to extend the period of filming from February to May. As the story takes place a millennium from now, the first crew arriving at Hong Kong last November was mainly engaged in scouting about for modern buildings. We helped them with work visa applications to the Immigration Department and location scouting. So following Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, Hong Kong’s unique cityscape will be laid once again before the eyes of the world. The film company will hire 120 local film workers, which is expected to benefit the economy.
