Disney and Marvel may stop filming in Georgia if the state enacts its new restrictive abortion law. Walt Disney Co Chief Executive Bob Iger said on Wednesday that it would be 'very difficult' for the media company to keep filming in Georgia if the law takes effect because many people will not want to work in the state. Disney's Marvel Studios has filmed blockbuster movies in Georgia, including Black Panther and Avengers: Endgame. It would be a blow to the state's efforts to create production jobs if the entertainment giant stopped filming there.

Summer is upon us. Who would wish to film in Georgia during the summer anyway? Which means that this the BS looking to for a place to drop.

Deal got on his knees before these people and bowed to their demands.

He wouldn't stand up for religious liberty in this state.

Hoping the new gov has more fortitude than Deal.

Michigan had a department for movie filming. More money was spent on the department than was generated by the program. Ewww, Hollywood people. Wash your hands if you meet one.

I’m sorry, weren’t talent still boycotting GA because guys have to use the men’s bathroom?

Tempest in a teapot; talent will go anywhere Disney/Marvel films - they’re not going to give up 10+ million dollar paydays, Disney’s not going to go film in another state (they love the tax credits in Georgia.)

Give back the tax credit money you took from the citizens of our great state of Georgia.

I wonder if Florida did that, I wonder if Disney would pull out of Florida!! I might ask my state lawmaker to try to get a heartbeat bill. I wonder if Disney would close Disney world...😋

Of course, I bet Disney would rather have Disney world open, since they are hypocrite.

Yes but, GA would be a better place with them gone. Who know, maybe the people of GA decided that following Biblical teaching was the best road.

2Ch 7:14
“if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

I hope all these slime and sleaze pimps leave all the “flyover” states. I’d like to see them go further and not release movies or transmit their savagery and debauchery into the “flyover” states.
