Tents lining California and Battery streets in San Francisco were part of the set for an untitled Netflix thriller filming under the working title "2034," directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt and starring Rachel McAdams and Jeff Daniels, among others.
Why this matters in The San Francisco
The presence of a major film production like "2034" in downtown San Francisco is a significant economic boost to the city. With a cast that includes well-known actors like Rachel McAdams and Jeff Daniels, the production is likely to bring in substantial revenue from filming permits, location fees, and crew expenditures. This influx of cash can benefit local businesses, such as hotels, restaurants, and equipment rental companies, that cater to the film industry. Furthermore, the fact that Netflix is investing in a production in San Francisco suggests that the city's efforts to attract more film and television productions may be paying off. As the city continues to navigate the challenges of hosting large-scale film productions, it will be worth watching how "2034" and other projects like it contribute to the local economy and shape the city's reputation as a hub for film and television production.
