Made In Bondi hits filming difficulties as cast members ‘go MIA’ at scheduled shooting times: ‘They aren’t taking the process seriously’

Made In Bondi has experienced filming problems as the cast reportedly fails to show up on time for filming.

Channel Seven’s spin-off series Made In Chelsea began filming scenes on the iconic beach last month, but has reportedly already resolved a number of issues on set.

An insider has claimed that some cast members are ‘running their own race’ and going ‘MIA’, failing to show up on time for scheduled tapings.

They said The Daily Telegraph: ‘The cast members do not pay attention to what is expected of them and do not take the process seriously.

“They’ll come to a shooting and they’ll be missing.”

The official cast for the debut series of Made In Bondi is yet to be confirmed, although a range of names were previously rumored to be signing up for the show.

Model Montana Cox, designer Sophie Coote and Jodi Gordon’s entrepreneur ex Aidan Walsh were said to be lined up by producers for the first season, but it has since been reported that they have all turned down the opportunity.

An insider previously claimed that producers have struggled to woo the big names, including Body by Berner pilates founder Bernadette Fahey, and socialite couple Andy El-Bayeh and Harriet Williams.

“Most of these people don’t really see the benefit of starring in the show,” they told The Daily Telegraph.

A whole new group of glamorous Bondi locals are expected to feature in the reality TV series, which brings the Made In Chelsea concept Down Under.

Filmed in the affluent area of ​​London, Made In Chelsea has been running for 26 series and follows a glitzy group of locals as they navigate their love lives and other challenges.

The hugely popular show has brought a host of recognizable faces to fame, including Sam Thompson, Millie Mackintosh, Spencer Matthews, Binky Felstead and Jamie Laing.

Now Australian viewers get a glimpse into the lives of a group of glitzy and glamorous Bondi locals in the highly anticipated spin-off series.

Channel Seven was spotted shooting scenes with a mysterious bikini-clad influencer on the beach last month, as a camera crew followed her every move.

Model Montana Cox and designer Sophie Coote were reportedly lined up by producers for the first season, but it has since been reported that they have all turned down the opportunity.

Late last year, the current Made In Chelsea cast – including Hugo Mackenzie-Wood and Sam Prince – flew Down Under to meet the new Made In Bondi crew.

They filmed scenes for a five-episode Made In Chelsea: Sydney special, which aired in Britain in December and set the stage for the Bondi spin-off.

Sydney residents Mia Loehr, Tayla Cohen, JJ Van Der Vliet, Lachlan Mclean and Isabella Cicero all took part in the special edition of the show. It has not yet been confirmed whether they will continue on the Bondi edition of the show.

Made in Bondi follows the lives and loves of Sydney’s party set who call this seaside location their home.

Viewers can expect a front row seat to breathtaking parties, breathtaking fashion, sizzling romances and plenty of drama.

Seven program manager Angus Ross said of the new show: ‘Set against the backdrop of some of Australia’s most affluent and beautiful suburbs – and featuring an incredible cast of Sydney residents.

“Made in Bondi will be an addictive, glamorous and wild ride that will have viewers hooked from the first minute.”
