Ewan McGregor Masks Up In Between Scenes on 'Simply Halston' Set in New York City

Ewan McGregor is taking all the safety precautions as he films scenes for his upcoming limited series Simply Halston in New York City on Monday afternoon (November 2).

The 49-year-old actor wore a long black trench coat as he shot a few scenes in Central Park with co-star Rebecca Dayan, who wore a long faux fur coat herself.

Ewan and Rebecca both wore face masks and face shields in between filming their scenes.

Simply Halston is based on the rise to fame story of fashion designer Halston.

The series will focus on the designer as he leverages his single, invented name into a worldwide fashion empire that’s synonymous with luxury, sex, status and fame, literally defining the era he lives in, 1970’s and ‘80’s New York — until a hostile takeover forces him to battle for control of his most precious asset…the name Halston itself.

If you didn’t know, Halston actually designed the famous pillbox hat that Jacqueline Kennedy wore to her husband’s presidential inauguration in 1961.

Just last week, Ewan was spotted out in a sharp white suit as he filmed more scenes for the limited series.
