Ridley Scott’s ‘Napoleon’
AE Logistics Ltd is positioned in Malta as a key player behind the scenes of Ridley Scott’s ‘Napoleon’, playing an essential role in the film industry. Recognizing that the global impact of the film industry goes beyond the lights and cameras, AE Logistics Ltd consolidates its position as a vital infrastructure and logistics provider on the epic production ‘Napoleon’. Starring Joaquin Phoenix as Napoleon, the historical drama unfolds under the creative guidance of Ridley Scott and Apple Studios. During the 62 days of filming, a total of eleven cameras rolled in unison to capture intense battle sequences and historical drama. Ridley Scott’s efficiency in filmmaking underscores the importance of effective use of time, a principle evident in every project he undertakes. Malta became the filming location for three weeks starting in May 2022. The imposing Fort Ricasoli in Kalkara was transformed to recreate the historic Siege of Toulon from 1793, where Napoleon achieved his triumphant victory. This fort, renowned for its versatility, had previously played a prominent role as the iconic Red Keep in the acclaimed “Game of Thrones” series. This cinematic achievement demonstrates Malta’s unique ability to adapt to various eras and settings, establishing itself as a preferred destination for high-calibre productions. A crowd of extras gathered in one of Malta’s squares, where market stalls served as a backdrop for numerous extras, immersing the audience in the grandeur of ‘Napoleon’. Ridley Scott’s skilful direction in large-scale productions stands out, emphasizing practicality and efficiency in filmmaking.
