The death of Texas-based assistant director John Nolan from COVID-19 last week has renewed concerns in the U.S. about the safety of returning to film sets. Film sets – and perhaps particularly on commercials – are typically busy, crowded places where ensuring the health and safety of crew members against COVID-19 can be challenging. The tragic passing of John Nolan has reignited the debate over safety concerns as U.S. film and television projects are resuming production.
