Star Trek: Picard shoot halts as 50 crew members test Covid positive
The shoots of Paramount+ series Star Trek: Picard came to halt after more than 50 members of the large production team, were tested positive of Covid-19.
The shoot had just started couple of days back after Christmas break. According to reports, production on the series was immediately shut down and filming is expected to resume next week, if not sooner, though details remain under wraps.
The Patrick Stewart-led series has one of television’s biggest crews, numbering more than 450 staffers. The infections impacted multiple zones, including cast in Zone A. Star Trek: Picard was renewed for a third season in September last year, with seasons two and three being filmed back-to-back in a bid to control costs and accommodate production schedules. Besides Star Trek, Omicron has prompted a number of shows to pause filming this week, with fellow CBS Studios-produced series, including NCIS among those that have been impacted. —TMS
