Iconic buildings in Edinburgh will feature in a Hollywood movie filming in the capital this week.
Scenes for Cloud Atlas have already been shot in Glasgow and the cast and crew are shifting to the east coast for the next seven days.
The film stars Halle Berry and Tom Hanks and is based on David Mitchell’s novel.
On Friday, the City Chambers on the Royal Mile will be used as the set for the filming, standing in for a London hotel. It is understood an actor will climb down the side of the council building before running off.
Various parts of the city will be used by the crew over the coming week, with the Scott Monument also thought to be given a starring role.
It is not the first time Edinburgh has provided the back-drop for Hollywood films, with recent release One Day starring Anne Hathaway filming in the city last year. Black comedy Burke and Hare was also shot in the city.
