'The Bachelorette' Producers Reveal How Clare Crawley's Season Will Be Filming After Coronavirus

Producers have a plan about how things will be filmed for Clare Crawley‘s season of The Bachelorette.

Rob Mills, who oversees the Bachelor franchise, opened up in an interview with On Air With Ryan this week and revealed the plans that they’ve set in place to film amid a pandemic.

The first thing he explained was that everyone – contestant and crew – will be tested for coronavirus and then isolated before and during production.

The season is set to start shooting “in about a month,” he says, adding it will mostly be in one location.

“We’re going to be in one location and everyone will be tested the week before. Everyone who comes back negative, we shoot inside that bubble basically. Matt [James]‘s season, we’re hoping to start on time which would be the end of September and we’ll see where the world is,” Rob shared.

He went on, “Maybe there’s some travel, maybe it’s just domestic, maybe it’s by bus. We’ll see. If things aren’t that safe, we’ll shoot it the same way where everybody is safe, they’re tested, they’re quarantined and then you can having kissing and arguing and everything else.”

Rob also explained they previously had plans to go to Italy, however, everything will be taking place in Los Angeles for Clare.

“[Dates] won’t be at the Bachelor mansion. They’ll be at some sort of resort and we’ve scouted several of them,” he adds. “All of them have been scouted for good date locations and you know, it will not be as over the top as…we had incredible travel planned for Clare’s season, going to Italy, all these places that were going to be great. But they’ll be plenty of different date locations that will hopefully be as close to the Bachelorette as possible.”
