Indonesian influencer and fashion stylist, Reva Marchellin, is currently in the spotlight. Recently, she shared her moments while starring in the Hollywood film titled MONKEY MAN, directed by Dev Patel. Reva's success is not alone, she is accompanied by two other actors, Pehan Abdul and Fahad Scale.
The film MONKEY MAN, which was mostly shot in Batam in 2020, had to face challenging situations. This was due to the filming taking place amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The crew and cast had to undergo quarantine before starting the shooting. During the shooting process, they were not allowed to leave the resort where they stayed.
"We were not allowed to leave the studio area and the resort area, so we were confined for 4 months," said Reva Marchellin as quoted from detik.com.
The decision to limit mobility at the shooting location shows the commitment of the filmmakers towards the health of the entire production team. However, this restriction did not diminish the freedom of each cast member.
"So, there were often parties at the resort, and I became friends with the other cast members," Reva said as quoted from detik.com.
