It was announced in November 2019 that Ken Watanabe, Ralph Fiennes, Jessie Buckley and Dai Watanabe had been cast in the film. Filming was set take place between Japan and England beginning in the fall of 2020.[5]

In April 2021, the previously announced cast, minus Buckley, had exited the film, with Lily Franky, Ciarán Hinds, Ryo Nishikido, Tae Kimura and Rin Takanashi now set to star. Filming took place in June 2021.[6]

Late 2022, it was announced that Ciarán Hinds's daughter Aoife Hinds had replaced Buckley.
