Happy Feet 2 filming in Sydney

An article in today’s The Age Newspaper states that George Miller’s “Happy Feet 2″ will film in Sydney.

The production will employ 438 people over 3 years working from a new digital production facility ”Dr D”.

Miller, who will also direct the sequel, is ecstatic that the NSW Government poured money into such a facility (especially after they wouldn’t cut him a break on “Justice League”).

“This incentive by the NSW government is a significant step. It allows us to make Happy Feet 2 in Sydney and it will be the first of many productions from our new digital studio, Dr D,” he said in a statement.

“It helps us in our attempts to attract substantial foreign investment which will create hundreds of high-end, highly skilled jobs as well as nurture the careers of many people coming out of our educational institutions who would otherwise have no place to grow their talents.”
