“…some shoots require close interaction, which is where workers have been able to proceed with a level of comfort that’s scarce elsewhere. “Power Rangers: Dino Fury,” for instance, is currently in pre-production and scheduled to commence shooting in Auckland in October, with sanitization stations, workers signing in and out of set and a bubble system restricting interaction between different departments.
Ultimately, though, scenes will film normally providing alert levels allow them to do so. “‘Power Rangers’ involves combat, stunts and person-on-person fighting,” showrunner and executive producer Simon Bennett told Variety prior to this week’s lockdown. “If everyone had to distance, it wouldn’t be ‘Power Rangers.’ If we were to move to a higher level, we’d have to be very careful about how we worked, but one of the advantages is that most people fighting are wearing masks … the superhero kind! And the masks, costumes and props are heavily disinfected between use.”
Containing the latest outbreak and keeping foreign production rolling as much as possible remains important to the sector, given that the seven productions are injecting 3,000 jobs and NZ$400 million (US$262 million) into the country. Twyford says border exemptions for “Avatar” alone enabled 400 locals to resume working in June. Meanwhile, for the 20 Japan-based stunt performers and six U.S. actors permitted entry for “Power Rangers,” the show’s employing 700 local crew and 2,650 performers.“
