According to the newspaper The Calgary Herald, director Zack Snyder is considering filming scenes for his Superman reboot in Alberta, Canada.

Lindsay Blackett, the Culture minister confirmed this past Wednesday that a portion of a 200 million dollar Hollywood movie production will be shot in Alberta but stopped short of actually putting a name to the production. He did add however that the production would mean a 35 million dollar injection into the province.

Anyway, according to an insider who was talking to The Calgary Herald, Blackett is actually referring to the new Superman movie; Superman: Man of Steel. Which may or may not be true…

To sign off, I’ll leave you with Lindsay Blackett and his cryptic statement from Wednesday…

“I would expect there will be an announcement in the next 60 days about a significant picture, a blockbuster to be shot in Alberta. There might be one that is a $200 million, but it’s probably more like a $35-million Alberta spend. The details are fairly intricate right now. That’s a big-budget movie for us. The success of Inception and all the good comments made by the crew and actors and director go a long way. That is a movie that made a lot of money.”
