LOS ANGELES • Universal Studios said on Monday it expects to resume production in early next month of Jurassic World: Dominion as Hollywood begins to emerge from a three-month coronavirus shutdown.
Universal said it plans to get shooting under way at Pinewood Studios in England on July 6 under stringent protocols for the cast and crew to contain the spread of the corona-virus.
It will be one of the first major movies to restart work after filming on James Cameron's Avatar sequel by 20th Century Studios resumed in New Zealand on Monday.
Producer Jon Landau and the cast and crew ended two weeks in quarantine after their return to the country, which has said it is free of the virus.
Work on Jurassic World: Dominion, starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, came to an abrupt halt in mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic, which shut down movie and television sets around the world.
The protocols include a two-week quarantine for actors and crew flying into Britain as well as frequent coronavirus tests and antibody tests for all cast and crew and daily temperature tests. About 150 hand-sanitiser stations will be installed and there will be a "green zone" with enhanced testing for actors, Universal said.
Jurassic World: Dominion, a spin-off from the 1993 Jurassic Park blockbuster about the return of dinosaurs, is scheduled to be released in movie theatres in June next year.
