Following in the footsteps of James Cameron’s Avatar sequels, Amazon’s upcoming The Lord of the Rings series will be allowed to resume production in New Zealand.

In response to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many film and television productions were forced to shut down in order to help prevent spreading the virus. This included Amazon’s upcoming Lord of the Rings series which suspended production back in March. But now, the production for the series will soon be allowed to resume.

According to the New Zealand media website, Stuff, cast, and crew members for the upcoming Lord of the Rings series will be allowed to enter the country in order to resume work on the Amazon series. New Zealand, on the whole, has been one of the few countries to control the coronavirus pandemic within its borders, making film productions like these far safer. In addition to Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings, production for Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop and Power Rangers Beast Morphers will also be allowed to resume with in the country.
