"I'm in isolation for the next 10 days, but the family and I are healthy and well," he said.
"Really must send a big thank you to the doctors and medical experts at Queensland Health who have given us tremendous support and most importantly, very clear instructions as to how about going putting our company and the community's health first. Very proud to say that the entire production is following these instructions to a T," he added.

Hanks, who plays Elvis' manager Colonel Tom Parker in the film, was last seen with Luhrmann and crew members last week before developing symptoms on Wednesday.
A production company has confirmed shutting pre-production on the film after Hanks tested positive for COVID-19.
