Warner Bros. Superman sequel to recent reboot Man of Steel will not only see Ben Affleck star as Batman but will now apparently be filmed largely in Detroit and the greater Michigan area.

Production is due to start on the as yet untitled sequel next year with the project reportedly receiving an incentive of $35 million on $131 million of projected in-state expenditures.

Speaking of the news director Zack Snyder said:

“Detroit is a great example of a quintessential American city, and I know it will make the perfect backdrop for our movie.”
