Jonathan Bailey was shooting Bridgerton and Wicked at the same time as Fellow Travelers. In an interview he stated that at one point he left filming Fellow Travelers at 4 and was in Regecy Era outfit by 8 that same day. Matt Bomer also said that one day he came to the trailer they shared and it was shaking and he asked Jonathan what he was doing and he was practicing his choreography for Wicked.
Matt Bomer was nominated for a Golden Globe for his performance. Many fans were upset that Jonathan Bailey was not also nominated. Matt would later say " Any nomination for me is a nomination for Jonathan Bailey-There is no Hawk without Tim."
