Metropolis Not Filming In New York After All?

Despite a production listing noting a June start for Metropolis to film in New York, we are hearing unconfirmed reports that the show will actually be filming in a different city. Perhaps to provide a very different look from Gotham?

(No, the “different city” is not Vancouver.)

Do note that the original production report was not confirmed by the studio, nor was this follow-up. Studios rarely comment on production developments like these so we’re reliant on production charts and that sort of things for our information.

Here’s the official logline for the show, which will be coming to DC’s upcoming digital streaming service in 2019:

Set in the wondrous and awe-inspiring City of Tomorrow before the arrival of Superman, Metropolis, based on the DC characters, follows Lois Lane and Lex Luthor as they investigate the world of fringe science and expose the city’s dark and bizarre secrets.
