Lionsgate filmed The Hunger Games in North Carolina last year and its sequel, Catching Fire, will begin filming late this summer in the state. Iron Man 3 is the latest film to take advantage of North Carolina’s 25 percent tax credit for production companies that set up shop in the state and spend a minimum of $250,000. Cheadle, who plays James 'Rhodey' Rhodes in the movie, was on location today at Epic and is rumored to be a key part of this sequence.
