London Eye, London | MCU Location Scout

Aerial view of the London Eye and the Thames.

It’s a whirlpool!

The Fantastic Four pick up readings of a new sinkhole forming at the coordinates -51.30 N 00.07 W. They hop in their Fantasticar and zip to London, where they prevent the London Eye from collapsing and a bunch of tourists from dying. Unfortunately, the Thames drains into the ground.

While a second unit filmed crowd scenes and background plates in London at the real London Eye, none of the principal cast left Vancouver for this scene.
