'Outer Banks' may be set in North Carolina, but the new Netflix teen drama was filmed in a different state.
treasure-hunting drama was due to be filmed at the Outer Banks themselves. However, a little political activism on the part of Netflix led to the original plan to shoot the show in Wilmington, North Carolina, being scrapped.OBX, this was in part due to the state's House Bill 2. Known to many as"the bathroom bill," the law required transgender people to use the restrooms that matched the sex written on their birth certificate.
Though part of this bill was repealed when it became one of the most-discussed and notorious pieces of legislation in modern political discourse, certain parts of the bills considered discriminatory to LGBTQ+ people remain in force in the state.,"This tiny law is costing this town 70 good, clean, pension-paying jobs and also sending a message to those people who can bring these jobs and more that North Carolina still doesn't get it.
