Antigua St John's - Duran Duran has announced plans to film a second video in Antigua & Barbuda. The news came in a Ministry of Tourism press release which noted that Antigua & Barbuda was the set for the video Rio by Duran Duran, released on November 1, 1982.
The tune is one of the band's most recognizable songs, since it was widely regarded as symbolic of 1980s glamour and excess.
The video featured iconic images of the band in designer suits, singing and playing around on a yacht speeding over the crystal blue Caribbean Sea surrounding the island of Antigua.
Short segments show band members trying to live out their assorted daydreams, only to be teased, tormented, and made fools of by a body-painted vixen, Reema Ruspoli.
Shot over the course of three days in May 1982, the yacht scenes were filmed on the bay at English Harbour, the beach scenes at Miller's by the Sea at Fort James and the scenes with the raft at Shirley Heights.
