Hollywood film producers and actors have descended on the picturesque city of Ely, in Cambridgeshire, England, as they being filming for "The Other Boelyn Girl", a movie depicting the life of the sister of Anne Boelyn, one of Henry VIII's wives.

The movie is on location in Ely to use the inside and outside of Ely Cathedral as a set for part of the work.

Media and photographers from News International and other major media organisations have been gathered outside the Cathedral under tight security waiting to catch a glimpse of the three main stars of the film, Scarlet Johannsson, Natalie Portman and Eric Bana, but the movements of the three stars are being kept tightly under wraps.

This is the second time Ely Cathedral has been used as a film location in 15 months. Last May, Hollywood descended for the first time and spent two weeks in the city filming for the movie "The Golden Age."

Ely Cathedral has been paid on both occasions for the use of their premises, and the inconvenience of having to close their doors to the Fee-paying public, but has declined to comment on exactly how much has been paid. The Cathedral uses the donations from work like this to help with the cost and maintainence on the building, which costs £4500 per day to open.
