'Captain America 2' ditches Wilmington for Cleveland

In what has to be a big coup for the Cleveland Film Commission (and a big slap in the face of the North Carolina Film Commission after landing Iron Man 3), Marvel Studios has decided to film portions of 2014's Captain America: The Winter Soldier in Cleveland, Ohio instead of Wilmington as was originally planned. (Indoor scenes will be shot in Marvel's Raleigh Manhattan Beach Studios in California.) It flies in the face of North Carolina extending its 25% production incentive to the end of 2014, as hosting Captain America 2 was contingent on that. Well, not anymore.
Marvel Studios and Disney will release the film April 4, 2014.
