Actor Miles Teller allegedly tested positive for Covid-19 after previously refusing to get the vaccine and caused the production of his highly-anticipated television show to shut down.
A source connected to the production spilled to Daily Mail. The incident allegedly occurred during filming for the latest Paramount Plus series The Offer. Production on The Godfather spinoff project reportedly shut down on Sunday after an unnamed production member tested positive for the virus. A senior source close to the executive team for the upcoming show then allegedly told the Daily Mail that the production member in question was in fact 34-year-old Miles Teller.
The source also reportedly told the outlet that Teller refused to both get a vaccine or a test for the virus before allegedly testing positive on set.
“Miles Teller is not vaccinated. He wouldn't even get the test,” the source reportedly told the online outlet. “Now he's brought the virus to the set and the whole set had to shut down.”
But although the source reportedly told the Daily Mail that Teller was the member who tested positive for Covid, the actor’s publicist allegedly claimed otherwise.
“Your facts are incorrect,” Teller’s publicist Lauren Hozempa reportedly told the outlet, although she did not elaborate further on the matter.
