Episode Details

A Netflix thriller filming in San Francisco’s Financial District has sparked surprise — it’s not a homeless encampment, but a movie set for “2034,” starring Rachel McAdams and Jeff Daniels. This unexpected scene is part of a major push by California and San Francisco to lure film and TV productions back home, after many left for better deals elsewhere. The city now covers 100% of qualifying fees and offers rebates on local spending, while the state has doubled its tax credit program to $750 million annually and expanded eligibility. New projects like “Donkey” and “Heat 2” are already signing on, proving that investing in film brings back jobs and economic growth — and this downtown shoot is a visible sign that the strategy is paying off.
