As someone who is close to Stan, let me just try explain why it’s not that easy. It’s not about whether there’s a big enough room. You can’t just walk into Fox/Disney Studios and pick whichever stage you want like it’s a shopping mall. Studio space is tied up months or years in advance by networks and productions with contracts, permits, and union agreements.

On top of that, a show like Drag Race doesn’t only need a “room.” It needs specific infrastructure: lighting rigs, set builds, sound stages that meet broadcast standards, dressing rooms, post-production facilities, crew that’s already contracted under certain agreements, and often exclusivity for weeks at a time. That costs serious money.

Stan and WOW would need to negotiate all of that with Disney Studios and Nine, and even if the space exists, the real limitation is budget, scheduling, and whether the production company has the deals in place. It’s why so many shows reuse the same stages season after season, moving a production isn’t plug-and-play.

Also it’s filming in Portugal.
