Electric Entertainment and Arrowstorm Entertainment are set to recommence production on the third season of the fantasy-adventure series The Outpost in Serbia this month.

Production on The Outpost was halted at the beginning of the outbreak of COVID-19 in mid-March. Balkanic Media, a production company based in Belgrade, has an extensive post-lockdown production plan containing guidelines to maintain the safety of staff and crew on-set. Further, Dr. Branka Matijasevic will serve as the show’s medical advisor, and all crew members are going through training to ensure safety measures are maintained.

Starring Jessica Green (Ash vs. Evil Dead), Jake Stormoen (Extinct), Imogen Waterhouse (Nocturnal Animals) and Anand Desai-Barochia (Emmerdale), The Outpost’s new season follows on as Talon has summoned Zed and his Blackblood comrades to save the Outpost. She finds herself betrayed by her own kind, and struggles to reconcile her human friends and her Blackblood heritage. The series airs on The CW in the U.S.

Dr. Matijasevic said: “After examining the content of the post-isolation plan for the continuation of production of The Outpost season 3, I can state that the plan meets the requirements of all standards in COVID-19 prevention prescribed by the Institute of Public Health of Serbia. As one of the essential measures, I propose daily physical examinations for the cast, conducted upon arrival to the studio and consisting of the following procedures: auscultation of lungs and heart, ECG, tension measurement, saturation measurement and check for febrile. Results would be filed and kept. Crew members would be examined weekly, one pod at a time, following the same procedure as the cast. Each member of cast and crew will have a medical file with record of all examinations, and it would be accessible for review per request.”

Dean Devlin, CEO of Electric Entertainment, added: “We are excited to be one of the first productions to resume after the TV and film industry was put on pause. Balkanic Media has gone above and beyond to ensure everyone’s safety on-set, and we are happy that the third season of The Outpost will be completed and ready to premiere fall 2020.”
