Stories from the set

Miles Teller and Da'Vine Joy Randolph shared an agent, and they had wanted to star together for some time.

Shortly before the film's premiere in Toronto, director and screenwriter David Freyne was diagnosed with a brain tumor. He made it to the Toronto premiere in September 2025, but after that he underwent brain surgery and a significant portion of the tumor was removed. After the surgery, Freyne and four neurosurgeons attended the film's London premiere, where Freyne thanked them from the stage for the successful operation.
