(Los Angeles, California — The Grand Beverly Hotel)
The world outside was completely paralyzed by the H-19 pandemic, but inside the Grand Beverly Hotel, a different kind of lockdown was taking place.
Leviathan had spared absolutely no expense. To beat Damian West and corner the empty movie market, he had rented out the entire luxury hotel, effectively transforming it into an isolated fortress.
Private security guards stood at every entrance. Medical staff roamed the hallways in full protective gear, ready to enforce the strict Bubble Filming protocols.
The hotel's massive Grand Ballroom, a place that usually hosted lavish celebrity galas, had been completely stripped down.
The expensive round tables and velvet chairs were gone. In their place, a long, simple folding table sat at the far end of the vast room, surrounded by camera equipment, ring lights, and bottles of hand sanitizer.
This was their casting hub.
