Nevada Filming Location
A car chase scene from Lethal Weapon 4 was filmed in Las Vegas, NV. The I-215 from Pecos Road to Windmill Lane was closed for two weeks, and the production hired 50 local extras to drive their vehicles along the roadway (source). The producers of the film also donated $5,000 to Child Haven, a local shelter for abused children, and even took them on a tour of the set.
