John Travolta‘s presence in France has got a few locals in a disapproving frenzy.
Travolta’s From Paris With Love has suspended production after 10 prop cars were set on fire at the housing projects where filming was to be staged.
Cars are regularly torched in French housing projects as a sign of unrest. Most notably, the fires got out of hand during a long riot through the projects in 2005.
90 residents from the neighborhood were scheduled to appear as extras in the film.
But, for now, filming is at a standstill while the incident is investigated and the crew considers options.
Looks like the French aren’t fond of Travolta – they certainly aren’t fond of Scientology.
Who could blame them?
