TheUmbrellaAcademy star David Castañeda reveals he had to attend dance rehearsals over Zoom to prepare for his season 3 return.
The Umbrella Academy's David Castañeda reveals that he learned to dance over Zoom for season 3. The Netflix series, based on Gerald Way's popular comics of the same name, premiered back in 2019 and follows the Hargreeves, a dysfunctional family of adopted siblings, all of whom possess superpowers, as they deal with time travel and the secrets of their father's mysterious past in an attempt to save the world from a global apocalypse.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The Umbrella Academy season 3 was announced in November of 2020, but like many other productions at the time, the show became affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and was not released until June 22, 2022.
The dancing was quite exciting and nerve-wracking, especially because I’d never done anything professional in terms of choreo and work with a dance choreographer, John Heginbotham. But having to do Zoom rehearsals and learn video tutorials of how to make the moves and obviously watching Footloose and understanding the rhythm and then going and actually doing in-person rehearsals was fun.
Much of the filming of The Umbrella Academy season 3 seemed to have been impacted by the pandemic and COVID protocols. Adding to the already extended hiatus following its second season, the show's shooting schedule had to comply with the procedures put in place, resulting in shorter days on set. Star, Tom Hopper, spoke about the length of filming last year, revealing that they were far from completion at the time, but mentioned, like Castañeda, that every moment on set was fun.
Steve Blackman and those involved with the series certainly know how to maintain that sense of enjoyment, one reason why fans have come to love the show and its cast of characters so much. Diego and his journey through three seasons has been another source of interest for audiences, and so his hallucination being a"Footloose" dance battle has made him all the more amusing.
