The script was co-written by Neil Burger and Olen Steinhauer, with Burger directing. The film is produced by Bill Block and Charles Miller, alongside Burger. [2] The film was developed from an idea that Burger had during the Covid-19 pandemic and is international in scope, but was filmed entirely on an iPhone. Burger has described using an "experimental style of shooting" in which there "was no wait time for camera set- ups, no makeup checks, or rehearsals. We’d arrive at the location and then immediately shoot as much as we could in the time that we had. It enabled us to travel with a small crew". [3]
The cast includes Phoebe Dynevor, Rhys Ifans, Ciara Baxendale and Kersti Bryan and also includes Daniel Joey Albright, Mitchell Hochman, Majd Eid, Byron Clohessy, Salim Siddiqui and José Alvarez. [4]
Principal photography took place in New York City, Delhi, Seoul and Cairo. [5]
It is set to be released on 24 January 2025. [6]
