The military coup has interrupted filming of Nicolas Cage's new movie, Bangkok Dangerous, the gangster thriller being shot in Bangkok, according to a foreign news report.
The Chinese web site Sina.com said Cage also had prepared a private jet to leave the country on short notice.
Twin Thai brothers Danny and Oxide Pang are remaking their 1999 film, "Bangkok Dangerous" with Cage as star.
According to Sina.com, the problems began when news of the coup on Tuesday night reached the crew. Cage was immediately sent back to his hotel. Crew members remained on the set to keep an eye on prop guns, but Cage persuaded the producer to send everyone home.
Sina.com said filming was scheduled to be completed next month, but may be delayed further because of the coup.
