A brief article at the Aussie website Inside Film pegs the production location for 'Green Lantern' as Mexico.
Fans will recall that the film was looking at Australia as it's location until the rise in the value of the currency there made location filming less of a bargain than it had seemed earlier in the year. Inside Film says the booming dollar raises the price tag on the production some $20 million, a pill too big for Warner Bros to swallow.
Louisiana quickly became the go-to choice for a new Lantern locale, as the tax-friendly state has been hosting several Hollywood productions of late. Michigan was also considered although the C2F home-state is currently suffering a shortage of qualified crews to keep up with the demand from the big studios.
Apparently a Mexican location is now favored, although the decision isn't yet final. 'Green Lantern' is supposed to begin filming early next year, pushed back from its planned November start.
