Shooting for the fifth Batman movie, Batman Begins, took place in Iceland last week. The scenes were filmed in South-east Iceland with the country's biggest glacier serving as a background.

According to Sagafilm, the production service company in Iceland, about two hundred people were working on the set, around half of them being Icelandic.

Two of the film’s leading actors, Christian Bale (Wayne/Batman) and Liam Neeson, who plays Wayne’s mentor, Henri Ducard, were present during the shooting in Iceland.
