NEWS: ‘Man of Steel’ sequel to film in metro Detroit (CNN) — Michiganders looking for work might want to keep their eyes peeled for Superman. Zack Snyder’s upcoming “Man of Steel” sequel, which will star Brit actor Henry Cavill as Superman and Ben Affleck as Batman, is slated to film in metro Detroit and throughout Michigan, the Michigan Film Office announced Thursday. The Warner Bros. production has earned a $35 million incentive for the $131 million it’s projected to rack up in in-state expenses. It’s also expected that the upcoming release will hire just over 400 workers, and create the equivalent of 426 full-time jobs. (A bit of good news to follow a dreary summer — in July, Detroit became America’s largest city to declare bankruptcy.) In the eyes of director Snyder, Detroit “is a great example of a quintessential American city, and I know it will make the perfect backdrop for our movie,” he said in a statement. “Detroit and the entire state of Michigan have been fantastic collaborators, and we are looking forward to working together on this film.” Complete Link: wtvr/2013/08/31/man-of-steel-sequel-to-film-in-metro-detroit/ - Admin Renz :)
