Any updates on the rumors of the production being restaged either in LA or in London (back at the Savoy?) to be filmed?

I don’t think this is a smart move because then it cheapens the live experience of the cinematography used in a meta theatrical way.
Also, any SUNSET filming would likely kill a potential true film of the musical itself (which many have clung to as Glenn Close’s last hope for an Oscar)

A filmed version wouldn't be the same, but I'd love for it to happen, if only for access. I have family that would love to see it but can't fly to New York.
And I don't think a feature film of Sunset is happening, with it without Close. But she stays booked and busy and I think she will have plenty of chances for that Oscar in the next five years (more likely in supporting).

If this production won’t tour I would love for it to be filmed even if the title song isn’t as exciting in a filmed version. The Albert Hall performance was still pretty neat to watch on film. I just think if they were going to film it they would have done so already in London.

I will always support any theatre being filmed. Imagine a world without those Sondheim recordings. It has the power to truly change lives and minds, especially kids. That 13 year old in Indiana needs this to be filmed.

I doubt it. Paramount is probably the biggest hurdle in filming any production of this show.

People who are probably desperate for this to happen: Nicole Scherzinger, Jamie Lloyd, Jonathan Groff
People who are probably not desperate for this to happen: Glenn Close
"Oh, what a beautiful day" Glenn Close was heard saying when asked if she would be going to the premiere.
Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Why would Groff care?

Exactly. There is no way I would be here posting on this forum if it weren't for the taping of 'Sunday in the Park with George' (I recognise many likely wish I never watched it in hindsight LOL).
