After successfully completing Season 2 of Sistas, Tyler Perry has kicked off filming on the sophomore season of his other BET series, The Oval, at his Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta.
I hear the cast arrived last Thursday as scheduled. After three rounds of Covid-19 tests on the 377 actors and crew members all came back negative, filming started yesterday, Aug. 4, sources said.

Perry employs a quarantine bubble model, sequestering cast and crew on the lot for the duration of a shoot. The production follows a 30-page document Perry sent to his teams in May, outlining the plan in great detail. It starts with an initial check-in testing while everyone is sequestered in their rooms. In the case of Sistas, that pre-filming test produced four positives.
