Up until this point, the best source for information on Darren Aronofsky’s Noah was the director’s own Twitter feed, but now, a full set of on-set photos from the movie’s location shoot in Upper Brookville, New York have been posted online, giving fans their first looks at Logan Lerman and Madison Davenport in character.
The images were shared via OnLocation Vacations, the casting site that follows films through production. They captured Aronofsky on the Long Island set, where he directed Logan and Davenport as Biblical characters Ham – Noah’s son – and his Ham's wife, Na’el. See for yourself:

The real “get,” of course, would be a better shot of Noah, himself (Russell Crowe), or perhaps a snapshot of this Ark he’s going to have to build to rescue all of the animals, two by two. But there will be plenty of time for that. Unlike certain films that operate in a state of lockdown, Aronofsky’s set has been predominantly open. The Black Swan director has used social media (as I mentioned) to share his own unique access to behind-the-scenes moments on the Noah set and these new images give us a glance at a pretty cool title scheme, though there’s no confirmation that it will be the font used on the finished film. It’s hardly Biblical enough.
Aronofsky’s Noah is working toward a March 28, 2014 release date. Here’s hoping we haven’t seen the majority of the film in online photos by then.
