With the "Justice League" film on hold and looking more unlikely by the day, a new rumor has sprung up - a shift in location.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Warner Bros. may be moving the entire production from Australia to Canada and is certainly pushing for that option with the film's helmer George Miller.

Miller though seems resolute to keep it locally in Sydney - "One of the reasons for doing Justice League in this country is the opportunity to bring back all the people we lost on Happy Feet who went overseas. We spent four years developing this talent and the cream of them left because they didn't have another film to go on to. The idea is to say come back, start off on Justice League then move onto Happy Feet 2."

Justice League was due to be shot at Fox Studios this year until Warner Bros suspended production last month. Miller describes the movie's current status as "precarious".
