Lowe explained that it is “cheaper to bring a hundred American people to Ireland than to walk across the lot at Fox, right past the soundstages and do it there.”

“There are no tax credits,” Lowe noted. “All those other places are offering 40 percent, and then on top of that there’s other stuff that they do….
