Coronavirus Outbreak: Hollywood considers ways to make red carpet events suitable for social distancing
FirstpostAs movie industries across the world grapple with the coronavirus pandemic, the red carpets of the near future will look very different - if they happen at all Los Angeles: It could be a long while until you hear that Hollywood red carpet staple, “And who are you wearing tonight?” Red carpets, the lifeblood of movie premieres and award shows, thrive on the buzz of glamorous actors, show-stopping gowns and screaming fans. “We took the red carpet and we had to re-envision how it would work post-quarantine and keeping people apart,” said Craig Waldman, president of 15|40 Productions. “I don’t know that we will see Emmy-nominated actresses walking the Emmy red carpet wearing masks,” said Hollywood Reporter writer Chris Gardner. “I know one I’m protecting right now is staying away from everything,” said Zimet, who doesn’t expect red carpets to return in New York until fall, or possibly winter.
