If you missed it, back in July 2020, Zendaya opened up about how the team made a whole movie amidst the pandemic when most film and TV shoots were still shut down in an interview with Deadline. For the set, the team decided to film on location at the Feldman Architecture”s Caterpillar House, a site that was chosen for its ability to provide privacy to the cast and crew. 

 

Strict measures were implemented throughout filming, with the stars acting as their own costume department, among other roles. Through detailed and impeccable planning, the cast and crew were able to make what is believed to be the first film to be made from beginning to end during the pandemic. The Greatest Showman star Zendaya confirmed the project on back in July, when she took to Instagram to share a photo of herself and Washington with the caption, Malcolm & Marie.
