COVID-19 could now affect your Marvel binge-watching plans.

The Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has shut down filming in Prague, according to Deadline. The move comes after concerns over the strain of coronavirus caused the city to close schools and place restrictions on travel. The shoot began last Friday and was meant to last a week, but yesterday the studio called everyone back to its home-set in Atlanta, the outlet reports.

This is not the first time nature has gotten in the way of filming the Captain America and Avengers spinoff. A shoot in Puerto Rico in January was called off because of a 6.4 magnitude earthquake, Deadline says.

Provided there are no more natural events — and Thanos doesn’t pop up — The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is scheduled to premiere in August.
