Hollywood will likely be one of the last industries to reopen as unions, studios and public health officials scramble to establish new protocols and safety measures amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Keeping crews safe becomes even more complicated with actors who must film intimate scenes, in which wearing personal protective gear is not possible.
It will include enforcing standards already set in place by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. It could involve having hand sanitizer dispensers on set, allowing more breaks so workers can wash their hands, enforcing daily temperature checks and even offering rapid testing when that becomes available.
"We are in uncharted territory," union President Matt Loeb said, adding that nearly 100 percent of the union's members are out of work."The virus has locked us out. We are all in limbo."Work is already resuming in other parts of the world. Last week, the New Zealand government approved the local screen industry's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, paving the way for productions to resume, according to the New Zealand Film Commission.
