Production
[edit]The film's script was written by Ruby Caster and Caleb Hearon. Hearon sent the script to his friend Lilly Wachowski, who found it "beautiful and sad and funny", also noting the importance of queer representation. She was set to direct the film, which would make it her debut as a solo director.[1][2]
Principal photography began in October 2025 in Chicago, with Kris Rey named as the film director and Wachowski being one of its executive producers. Zooey Deschanel, Kyle Marvin, Jaboukie Young-White, Jacki Weaver, and Holmes have joined the cast.[3][4][5]
