Civil War shot its Lagos scenes in Atlanta. In fact, a lot of the Marvel properties and blockbusters in general are shot in Atlanta. That doesn't mean anything. It does for a TV show. Movies have the money to dress up the city to look like someplace else. Ant-Man could go to San Francisco for establishing shots, and had the effects budget to make an unused archives building right next to the state capitol look like oceanfront property. TV shows don't have the same luxury. The Walking Dead was set in Atlanta, Constantine was set in Atlanta, The Gifted is set in Atlanta, the setting for Agent Carter moved from New York to LA for its second season because it was cheaper to not have to rely on so many sets, Breaking Bad was in Albuquerque instead of southern California because New Mexico had better tax breaks, and so on. For a TV series, it makes economic sense to bet set in the city you shoot in. I wouldn't be surprised if Cloak & Dagger takes place in New Orleans for a similar reason.
