Touted as one of Ryan Murphy’s much-awaited Netflix project, The Prom has resumed filming on Thursday. This marks the popular screenwriter's second major project to restart production in the United States amid the coronavirus pandemic.

If sources are anything to go by, The Prom, which stars James Corden, Nicole Kidman and Meryl Streep have restarted production on Thursday in Hollywood at Raleigh Studios, Deadline reported. The movie, which had only a couple of days left of filming before the industry was shut down due to the pandemic, is expected to film for the next four days.

Given that some of the cast had already wrapped their parts, only a few stars will be available on set. This star-studded Broadway adaptation is the second notable project from Murphy that has returned to production in the United States this month.

Adam Sandler's 2020 comedy film Hubie Halloween planned a day of pick-up shots in L.A. earlier this month, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Although the production was expected to go off without any sort of inconvenience, sources with knowledge of the filming claim Murphy was restricted in terms of what it could achieve from the experience citing the limited duration of the shoot.

Given that The Prom is slated to film for several consecutive days, insiders claim it will serve as a better test case for the company, which the sources say has devised its own health and safety protocols. Another insider says Netflix is serious about their plan and is considering this as a test run for a slew of their upcoming productions.

Aside from that, Netflix is gearing up to restart production on another of its equally-anticipated movies, Red Notice, which stars former WWE Superstar Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot. According to a source, the streamer is bent on starting shooting for the action film sometime in Aug.

The film had been shooting in Atlanta, Georgia before the coronavirus pandemic forced the production to be halted earlier this year. There is a possibility that cast and crew would need to quarantine for roughly about 60 days during the shoot, but the plan is likely to change in the next month.

A slew of other studios is also trying to restart production next month, amid a still-raging pandemic. The fourth installment of FX's Fargo is expected to return to production in Chicago next month, with two crews present in case one gets sick.
