After the film was green-lit in 2006, filming took place in 2007 on the Hawaiian island of Kaua'i over thirteen weeks and was later deemed the largest film production in the island's history.
Nakon što je film 2006. dobio zeleno svjetlo, snimanje se odvijalo 2007. na havajskom otoku Kauai: trajalo je 13 tjedana, a smatra se najvećom filmskom produkcijom u povijesti otoka.
