In January 2024, Waititi was confirmed to direct the film, and Jenna Ortega was in talks to star in the lead role.[5] The next month, Amy Adams, Mia Tharia, Aran Murphy, Natasha Lyonne and Simon Baker joined the cast, while Ortega was confirmed to star as Klara.[6][7][8]
Principal photography began in January 2024, with scenes being shot at Silverlight Studios under the working title Tears and Rain.[9] Production occurred in Auckland in early April.[10] Filming is also expected to occur in Wanaka.[11]
