It was announced in May 2023 that Andrew Niccol had set the film as his next project, which will be a live action-animation hybrid. Melanie Lynskey, Karl Urban, Thomasin McKenzie and Jemaine Clement were set to star, with production expected to begin later in the year.[1] In January 2024, Anna Faris replaced Lynskey in the film, as Lynskey had to exit due to scheduling conflicts.[2]
