...then there were the hard times, many of them on the start of the more than 110-day Ultimatum shoot. Filming a chase scene in Tangier, a busy North African port city in the middle of Ramadan meant securing contracts with more than 2,000 businesses and shutting down production when fasting crowds got cranky. As the script shifted, Greengrass and Damon shared frustrating early-morning huddles. "The two of them would sit there and talk for hours about this character," says producer Frank Marshall.

The man Wallace saw, however, was dressed in Iraqi army fatigues, which are sometimes worn by Iraqi police as well. "This all suggests that someone provided more than just a layout of the compound and knowledge of the Coalition Forces' battle drill," the report says.
