Most of the crew on Sistas and The Oval are based in Atlanta and Perry will fly in cast members with his private jet from New York and Los Angeles after they have undergone COVID-19 tests.

Upon their arrival in Atlanta, the cast will head straight to the set where they alongside the crew will immediately be tested again for coronavirus, awaiting their results before being cleared to work.
