As reported byThe Hollywood Reporter, the film faced a lot of problems following the end of principal production. The film required extensive reshoots and scheduling conflicts between the actors caused a problem for it to happen. The strikes also delayed the required reshoots of the film and the aging of the child actors involved in the film caused continuity issues for the project.
The latter aspect was also a problem in shows likeStranger Thingswhere the child actors including Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, and others have aged significantly when audiences saw them in season 4 compared to the earlier seasons. The Duffer Brothers have taken in this viewpoint and are incorporating a time jump for their final season.
As forThe Mothership,Netflix’s content chief Bela Bajariarecently claimed that“there was just a lot of issues during production and so creatively, so everybody just felt like it was the right thing to just not do it”. While both parties might have run into trouble with this project, they are continuing their collaboration as Berry’sThe Unionis set for a release this August.
