The Age have revealed that Happy Feet 2 is due to be made in a new digital production facility in Sydney.
George Miller will be back to direct the sequel to the Oscar-winning Australian blockbuster about a dancing penguin.
Happy Feet 2 will be one of the first of many productions to be made in the new 'Dr. D' studio.
The Age writes: "The new digital production facility is expected to provide a significant boost to the local movie industry, which has been criticised for a lack of investment in recent years."
NSW Minister of State Development Ian Macdonald "said Happy Feet 2 and the new "Dr D" digital production facility, which he said were secured through a payroll tax assistance package, have put Sydney 'once again front and centre of the national film industry.'"
The project is expected to require some 438 staff over three years, including 230 computer-generated imaging artists.
