The shoot was shut down on July 28 after someone on the set tested positive for COVID-19 and affected “the cast and those interacting with them.”
“Out of an abundance of caution, we have temporarily halted production on ‘The Offer’ due to the return of a positive coronavirus test result during routine testing. We will continue to follow all safety protocols and monitor the situation closely,” a rep for the Paramount told Deadline at the time. Production has since been re-started and Teller returned to set.
