Impact of the COVID-19 pandemicFilming for the season was originally set to begin on February 13, 2021, but was not possible due to complications related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[10] It was finally registered in Acapulco de Juárez between February 26 and March 20, 2021 amid the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico, where precautions were taken to ensure the safety of the cast and production team. Both the cast and crew were screened for COVID-19 after being quarantined for two weeks prior to filming. During filming, the production wore personal protective equipment and stood 2 meters from the crew members. The health situation prevented the recordings from proceeding normally, preventing the cast from heading to locations commonly selected for production. Instead, the public spaces were replaced by a mansion that had a club, a restaurant, and a pier.[11][12] References
