On Reddit, u/IHeartPenguins0 shared this photo when they met Markiplier while he was filming Edge of Sleep.
I recently met Mark when he was filming Edge of Sleep! from Markiplier
IHeartPenguins0 wrote: “I kept thinking, “I want to ask for a photo, but I don’t want to bother him!” I’m glad I did approach him, because I would’ve regretted not trying. He was really nice and made me feel at ease.”
They shared that the photo was taken in Canada in the province of BC, and added: “I actually used to live in that neighborhood, so it was crazy to see a film crew there. I read a notice about traffic detours due to filming, so I went down to check it out. It made no mention of what the production was or who would be there. Imagine my surprise when I saw him!”
The scene they were filming at the time was focus on Linda and Mateo.
Later, IHeartPenguins0 shared more photos from the filming which you can see in the link or below.
Unfortunately, we don’t know yet when the TV series is going to premiere or on what streaming service. Some fans are guessing late 2021 or early 2022, but an official estimate hasn’t yet been shared.
