(ANSA) - VENICE, 19 JAN - He was unable to occupy the extra-luxury suite that had been booked for him at the Hotel Danieli in Venice: John Malkovich was denied his stay in the structure overlooking the San Marco Basin because his Greenpass, as confirmed by sources of the production, had expired.
The actor and director, reports Il Gazzettino, was in the lagoon city a week ago for two days of shooting Ripley, the new American TV series inspired by the novels of Patricia Highsmith. After the 'stop' imposed by Danieli, Malkovich was hosted in a nearby Venetian residence. From the moment the troupe has landed in the lagoon, they are assisted and followed from a health point of view by a private mobile facility in the Pietà neighborhood, a stone's throw from Piazza San Marco, which carries out molecular swabs every two days for the protagonists of the series and for the filming staff.
A week ago, the absentees for Covid reached almost a hundred.
More or less the same fate that happened in Venice in the fall of 2020 for the filming of Mission Impossible 7 with Tom Cruise, marked by continuous stops due to the positivity to the virus.
