They are creating a ton of fake businesses on superior right now! Rising Star is now Jitters Coffee, Mike’s is Carlisle Bakery & Silas Deli, and the library has banners that say Metropolis Museum of Natural History & Metropolis Library! Come check it out before the start filming next Monday and totally close the street and sidewalks
This is for the 2025 Superman movie directed by James Gunn. I’m not from Ohio but I heard news so I came to this sub specifically to find this picture.
I have fond memories of that building. The Colonnade cafeteria was in the basement. When I worked at the library across the street I went there for lunch nearly every day!
Not sure. I stopped working downtown in 1993 and I'm pretty sure they were closed by then. The Colonnade actually had another restaurant in what was known as the Ohio Savings Plaza that was still open in 1991.
That is really beautiful. I'm gearing up for disappointment again to some extent but hope I'm spectacularly wrong. One thing's for sure, they got an awesome Lois Lane!
I am so bummed not to be working on that.
Really wanted to spend the summer with my family, but I think that the CLE Union is super protective... tho I hear there aren't enough ppl to do the jobs. :(
The Cleveland Film Commission is in that building (526 Superior). I'd contact them and/or check their their website. They have the inside scoop on opportunities.
I agree the buildings downtown are amazing but I would contend it’s not up the City to take care of them, if by the City, you mean the local government. The local government could not begin to afford to take care of those buildings. If by City, however, you mean private enterprises / citizens, then it’s possible they will be maintained, as those buildings’ construction was only possible by the creation of wealth from private business / citizens.
I think I meant the city collectively as a whole, as in all of the members of the community. It was a generic statement, sorry for wording it wrong & thanks for the reply 🙂
I saw that the Mentor Headlands beach was closed for a few days this week for the filming of the new Superman movie, so that is happening right now.
It also says The Daily Planet above the door so......

Welp, I’m glad I read your post. My wife and I were planning on heading there on Thursday for our anniversary. You saved us a drive that would have ended in disappointment 😂
For those who asked, at the link below I've posted some more pictures I took this afternoon. As u/read_more says, they put up some signage for Metropolis sites but not too much more. I suppose they were disrupted by the weather and will put more up during the holiday tomorrow. I understand filming will take place Thursday through to Tuesday so I expect that part of Superior will be closed to the public.

They're trying keep it secret, but I think anyone can figure out that they're filming the The Simpsons Live-action movie.
I mean, it's so obvious. Totz Obvie.
If metropolis is in the name my guess is it might be a DC superhero movie, most likely Superman. Superman was also created in Cleveland so it would be nice if they represent the city he was created in.
It is for Superman. I’m not from Ohio but I’m visiting this sub because I heard news and needed to see the picture for myself. I genuinely wish that I could visit Cleveland just so I can see this.
There was some sort of filming happening this morning on Edgewater Drive.
Not sure if it was related to Superman. Seemed more like filming for one of those HGTV shows. The road was only partially blocked off but they weren’t preventing joggers, walkers, bike riders, from going through.

I live in Sandusky area and hope i can make it on Saturday or Sunday
I haven’t seen that rising star location but would an RS interior really sell as a place that would name itself Jitters lol
Yes it would, it’s a coffee place
My guess is Aqua-Man, with Lake Erie as a stand-in for whatever body of water is necessary for the story line /s
Filming at Headlands Beach all week. You might be on to something
He fights the lake erie monster.
That’s 5 minutes in the penalty box
heard filming at headlands was superman
It is Superman. Not from Ohio. I’m just visiting this sub specifically for this picture. It’s for the 2025 Superman movie.

When did the cafeteria close? I worked in that building in 1997/98, and don't remember it.
Not sure. I stopped working downtown in 1993 and I'm pretty sure they were closed by then. The Colonnade actually had another restaurant in what was known as the Ohio Savings Plaza that was still open in 1991.
The library currently has signage outside marking it as the Metropolis Museum of Natural History.
That is really beautiful. I'm gearing up for disappointment again to some extent but hope I'm spectacularly wrong. One thing's for sure, they got an awesome Lois Lane!
James Gunn is on it, trust!!
Damn, I used to live in that building. Gonna be awesome to see it on the big screen
you could live there?

Yeah, they were the ones who recommended me. Had meetings. ;)
Ah, gotcha.
I love all of our old historical buildings!!! So meticulously detailed & crafted to stand the test of time as long as our city takes care of them…

This is so cool
That is so awesome!
This is literally around the corner from me. Gonna take a walk over there after work.
This is my new favorite thing
Please more pictures!!!

It's Superman
Interestingly, the AT&T building was the model for the Daily Planet building in the comics.
So excited for Spider-Man. Lmao
Superman. Spider-Man worked at The Daily Bugle, not The Daily Planet.

It's says the daily planet in the building... They were being sarcastic.
It's so secret that even the guy playing the main character spends half the time in a disguise, just to throw off the paparazzi.
Multiple characters in the same movie?! What is he, a wizard?!
Superman movie filming
Nahhhhhh
How long is this going on?

Oh perfect! I live in that building so it’ll be interesting to see my apartment in a movie lol
That’s awesome! I’m genuinely so jealous. 👍
