Actor Will Smith Moving Movie Production From Georgia To Louisiana

City of New Orleans spokesperson Beau Tidwell says production for the movie Emancipation is coming to New Orleans.

Tidwell confirmed yesterday that the runaway-slave drama starring Will Smith and directed by Antoine Fuqua would begin its filming schedule in Louisiana after leaving Georgia over a recently enacted law on voter access.

Emancipation tells the story of an escaped slave played by Smith who leaves a Louisiana plantation and joins the Union Army.

The movie is expected to begin production in June.
