New Zealand Returns To Production, Paving Way For ‘Avatar’ Sequels & ‘The Lord Of The Rings’ Series To Resume Filming

From Deadline:
EXCLUSIVE: New Zealand’s health and safety production protocols have been endorsed by the national government, we can reveal, meaning production can restart in the country after it was halted by the coronavirus pandemic. Some film and TV shoots “are already safely underway,” the New Zealand Film Commission has confirmed to us. This potentially paves the way for the country’s highest-profile productions, James Cameron’s Avatar sequels and Amazon’s The Lord Of The Rings series, to get back underway. #FidelityToTolkien

Shortland Street, has restarted filming with some alterations to meet the health and safety requirements, such as forced-perspective shooting so that the actors look like they're standing closer than they really are, and kisses replaced with 'longing looks'. It'd be interesting to know how Amazon is handling the restart. Keep in mind that those actors and crew who left before NZ's borders were closed will have to do two weeks of isolation when they fly back.

The last time I watched it was when the volcano exploded. That was so bat-crap crazy that it drew even me in!

Set dressers may be a little behind for a restart (as this clip shows) but cast and crew remain hopeful!

Looks a bit chaotic, don't you think? Might take a while to get everything in tune.

Isn’t it a bit too early to do caption contests for this show?

Not The LOTR Caption Contest. No Hobbits Here Caption Contest. Aragorn Wasn't Born Yet Contest. How'm I doin'? Anyway, I expect to have some captions from you when we're up and running.
