Didn't know about it until a few minutes ago, when I saw a scene being filmed on the streets of Old Montreal (standing in for Washington DC, presumably). I may have seen Woody Harrelson, I am not sure.
I don't think I've ever watched the original. Looking forward to this one, as I like big war epics, even if directed by Roland Emmerich.

It will be closer to Pearl Harbour then to Tora, Tora, Tora...and I don't mean the special effects.

I liked the Heston one. I’m calling it first. The Japanese win with the help of interdimensional extraterrestrials.

I don't know about that, but I bet there will be a woman who will be instrumental to the American victory, and probably a black sailor playing a very important part as well, even though at the time the American armed forces were highly segregated.

Hopefully, it's done with the enthusiasm Emmerich had with like The Patriot or White House Down instead of 2012 or 10,000 BC.

Yeah, this is a disaster in the making.
...the movie. Not Midway.

Not a terrible cast though. Woody Harrelson, Aaron Eckhart, Luke Evans, Patrick Wilson, Dennis Quaid, and Nick Jonas and Mandy Moore? Will his nickname be "Seaplane" and her codename "Rapunzel"?

The scene that I saw being filmed had a car stopping in front of a building (Montreal City Hall in real life) and a military man getting out and walking up the stairs. It was far away and I could not really see his face, but it looked like it could have been Woody Harrelson. I saw them doing four or five takes, which was fun - in addition to his car, there was another old car that drove by, and a few extras walking in front of the building.
