A Hulu television series was going to be produced in Charlotte, but Lionsgate canceled production because of HB2. It’s unclear how many local workers the cancelation has affected, but Lionsgate has moved production to Canada. Lionsgate called House Bill 2 “deplorable and discriminatory, and it runs counter to everything we stand for.” The Motion Picture Association of America also condemned the new law. Rob Reiner, director of “The Princess Bride” and “When Harry Met Sally,” said he will not film in North Carolina again until the law is repealed.
