Ohio Awards Nearly $2 Million for Cincinnati Shoot Linked to Superman Sequel

Public filings link the 'Exodus' award to Warner Bros.' 'Man of Tomorrow,' suggesting a brief Cincinnati shoot.

Overview

  • The Ohio Department of Development approved an estimated $1,991,730.90 motion‑picture tax credit for a project filed as 'Exodus' that lists Cincinnati as its filming location.
  • Records identify applicant S&K Pictures and a Warner Bros. incentives executive also tied to the prior 'Genesis' filing, which reporters matched to James Gunn’s 'Superman.'
  • Coverage indicates principal production on the sequel is slated to start in April at Trilith Studios near Atlanta, with the Ohio work expected in the summer.
  • Local outlets report the Cincinnati portion could span about five days between June 15 and Aug. 21, pointing to a targeted location shoot rather than an extended stay.
  • The credit reflects roughly 30% of qualified in‑state spending, with state officials citing more than 30 anticipated jobs and a projected economic impact exceeding $14.6 million.
