It was announced in April 2023 that Apple TV+ had acquired the film, which was to be directed by Jonah Hill.[6] He would also star in the film, while Keanu Reeves was in negotiations at that point to star alongside him.[7] Hill co-wrote the screenplay with Ezra Woods.[8][1] In January 2024, Reeves was confirmed to star in the film, with principal photography scheduled to begin in March 2024 in Los Angeles, and expected to wrap in May.[1] Nick Houy serves as an editor for the film.[9] In March, Cameron Diaz was said to be in advanced talks to join the film in an undisclosed starring role.[8] Days later, Diaz was confirmed to have signed on to join the cast, with Matt Bomer also joining in another undisclosed role.[3] This will mark the first time Reeves and Diaz have appeared in a film together since Feeling Minnesota (1996).[10] Principal photography began on March 20, 2024,[11] shortly after the production of Reeves and Aziz Ansari's comedy film Good Fortune.[6] In April, Susan Lucci, David Spade, Laverne Cox, Kaia Gerber, Roy Wood Jr. and Atsuko Okatsuka were added to the cast.[4] Cox revealed her role as Virginia in September, and revealed her involvement with Reeves in "one big scene", likening it to "a one-act play within the film".[5]
