Production has halted on director Paul Schrader’s latest movie, The Card Counter, just five days before principal photography wrapped in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Schrader is 73 years old and a self-proclaimed asthmatic, so he’s in the target demographic that’s particularly under threat from the virus.
And yet, he would have finished the movie if it literally killed him.
It has not been announced when The Card Counter will resume shooting, but for now it joins the heap of movies whose productions have become thwarted by the global crisis.
