Shooting continues

Filming for the project began even before the SAG-AFTRA strike that began on July 24th. Production was put on hold until an independent film was denied by the cast union to resume filming despite the ongoing strike. Director Segal said:It breaks my heart that so many actors, writers and crew are unable to work right now, and I realize how lucky we are that we have the opportunity to finish this film. I am incredibly grateful to SAG for continuing to support independent cinema and once we finish this film, The Tower cast and I will be there on the front lines alongside our fellow actors and writers fighting for what they deserve. .
