Different roads were used for Gadot's character to leave her house in Willoughby Road to take her son to school before taking a run on Hampstead Heath. The shoot, taking in Willow Road, Flask Walk, and Well Walk, was scheduled for 9am coinciding with the real school run for many parents.

The letter adds: "We are fully aware that without your help and co-operation, programmes like this could not be made. "We want you to know that every effort will be made to ensure that we cause you as little disturbance as possible during the time we are in the area, and be assured that we will be respectful and courteous throughout." A release date has not been announced.
