Filming previously paused due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.
The Big Picture
Deadline reports that Noah Hawley’s Alien series, which is being produced by FX, is set to resume filming early next year on location in Thailand. Hawley told the publication that he intended to head out to Southeast Asia in the first part of the year while attending the Season 5 premiere of his series Fargo. Production on the series had ground to a halt in late August due to the effects of the SAG-AFTRA strike, following a July start. During the downtime, sets continued to be built meaning the production is good to go.
“We’re getting back into production as quickly as possible. We’re shooting in Bangkok, a half a world away; shooting again in the New Year. I got some footage. Some of the first hour was shot before we had to shutdown. It’s stuff to play with and edit.”
