Thanks to one of our tipsters we may have uncovered another potential filming location for the newly titled Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Earlier this week there were tanks being delivered to a glass office building located on Van Dyke Ave between 14 and 15 Mile in Sterling Heights, Michigan. The name on the building has also been changed.
Filming officially began last week when the movie was spotted filming on location in Birmingham, MI. They are using the production signs that say “CCP” and are based at Michigan Motion Picture Studio in Pontiac.
Yesterday, Warner Brothers announced the movie’s full title and official start to filming. Check out the full press release below.

Not sure where the van Dyke tip came from.. there’s nothing happening there! No CCP signs, no office building! The picture above is from Birmingham the other day I think?
Yes, sorry if there was confusion, the sign was from Birmingham (just trying to show what they look like). The tipster has sent good info before so I don’t think it was a fake, maybe whatever they saw earlier in the week is done already?
