If you want to get technical, the original Metropolis, was Toronto Canada, where Joe Shuster wrote for the newspapers the Globe and Mail and Star Daily (which in his comics he combined into the “Daily Planet”), and Smallville was Halifax where he often spent time with family. He kind of shifted it to more closely match Cleveland after he moved to the US, but there’s a reason his fortress of solitude is in the Canadian arctic.
Superman’s Metropolis (?) is based on Cleveland (and the last movie was filmed there)

TIL!
We have an old saying. All the best Americans are usually Canadian. May Keanu smile on you. 😉
Maybe I’m old but I was thinking the old one
Edit : my argument is being moot since there’s the New York skyline on the poster of the second movie 🤣
