“A few minutes ago, we wrapped production on THE FALL OF THE USHER HOUSE, closing a great chapter in my life. I've worked in Vancouver almost nonstop since BLY MANOR in 2019. We've done 4 sets in 3 years, only taking a short break due to the COVID lockdown in early 2020.
BLY MANOR, MIDNIGHT MASS, MIDNIGHT CLUB AND HOUSE OF USHER were very difficult. Three of these shows were produced during the pandemic, amid ever-changing safety protocols designed to keep our huge cast and crew safe.
It has been a privilege to work with such wonderful collaborators, actors, directors, storytellers, crew, family and friends for so long, on THIRTY-FOUR EPISODES of television, the hardest and most rewarding job of my life.
This isn't quite the closing of @intrepid's 'Vancouver Era' book, I'm sure we'll be back, but it feels like the end of a very specific chapter. The world has changed dramatically since BLY prep began, and many of us have been through a lot together.Thank you, Vancouver, for being such a wonderful home for my entire family for the past few years. My kids practically grew up here. I'm sure I'll see you soon. Until then, I wish you all the best and thank you for everything.
