Louisiana woes.


Louisiana Woes: Hurricane Katrina appears to be quickly washing away Louisiana's goal of becoming "Hollywood South," with several major studio films now halted in mid-production while other projects are in question. The state had become a headache to the Southern California movie industry, with many projects being lured by generous tax incentives and a rapidly growing production infrastructure. As reported by the Daily News, the voicemail message at the New Orleans and Louisiana film commissions stated, "Due to Hurricane Katrina, production in New Orleans has been suspended indefinitely."
