Disney’s upcoming TV series of Falcon and Winter Soldier has been shut down in Prague due to concerns over the coronavirus, Variety has confirmed.
The TV series filming was put on hold after the Czech government placed a ban on movie screenings, elementary and high school classes, sports matches, and cultural events. The Prague Film Festival has also been canceled.
Falcon and Winter Soldier began filming in Prague last week, but the cast and crew have now been recalled to Atlanta as the crack down on coronavirus infections continues grow across Europe.
This marks it as the second time the series has been postponed. In January, the show was due to shoot in Puerto Rico but was forced to postpone shooting after the commonwealth was hit by a series of powerful earthquakes.
