Much of the film and television industry has been on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic, however production is slowly beginning to resume.

Earlier this week Tom Holland confirmed filming had begun on Uncharted, which had previously been struck by delays in March.

Other productions such as the latest Mission: Impossible film, which is being shot in Hertfordshire, are also set to be able to continue.
