Netflix announced on Wednesday that it would be requiring proof of COVID vaccination for all working close to the actors on set - the first major studio to make the jab mandatory.

The ruling will apply to all working in 'Zone A', which means the actors and those who come in close proximity to them, Deadline reported.

Last week Hollywood unions and the major film studios met and agreed a new plan for limiting the interruptions caused by the pandemic, which gave producers 'the option to implement mandatory vaccination policies for casts and crew in Zone A on a production-by-production basis.' 

Netflix decided to make the policy routine for all its U.S. productions.
