Many crewmembers on the undertaking were given up as the creation disbanded after endeavors to track down a new lead demonstrated unproductive. That project presently desires to restart in spring 2022.

With Boyega on board, 892 was back like 1-2-3. Entertainers Michael K Williams, Nicole Beharie, Selenis Leyva and Olivia Washington joined the roll call and creation started shooting unobtrusively in Los Angeles this week.
