Voltage Pictures would handle international rights sales while CAA would handle domestic sales. Producer Arash Amel, in the announcement, spoke of her enthusiasm for the project stating:
In October 2015, Tom Wilkinson joined the cast with Voltage Pictures planning to sell international rights to the film at the 2016 American Film Market.[2] In December 2015, Taylor Schilling signed on to replace Wilson, who, alongside Boutella, dropped out of the film.[3] In January 2016, Diego Boneta, Aleksander Jovanovic and Agyness Deyn joined the cast.[4] In February 2016, at AFM, Voltage Pictures managed to sell international distribution rights in multiple countries.[5] However, in February 2018, it was reported that Netflix had picked up worldwide distribution rights to the film.[6]
Principal production was slated to commence on January 18, 2016, in Europe[7] but was pushed back to February 1, 2016, where shooting began in Gran Canaria.[4]
