FILMING SCENE CONFUSION

I have noticed there is some confusion related to the actual filming location of the scene where Sheriff Branford and Deputy Cornwall were standing. The sign in the background says "Willow Bend" which is a subdivision off of Mundys Mill Rd. Super fans know that several scenes were filmed on and around Mundys Mill, so it is fair to assume that this scene was filmed in front of that subdivision.

However, if you look closely at the sign, it says "1 MILE - TURN LEFT". So NOT in front of the subdivision. The sign is actually at the intersection of Mundys Mill and Highway 54. About a mile up the road. Also, if you look at the 1st person camera angle in the Trans Am, you can see the same "Willow Bend" signs to the left of the patrol cars (see red circle).

Look for more filming location info in the coming weeks. And join us for TRANS AM Takeover Shows in October for a total immersion Smokey and the Bandit experience.
