Cast

Production

In March 2022, Apple TV+ announced it had acquired the distribution rights to the film for $100 million. Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans were also announced as starring in the film, with Jason Bateman directing.[1] In May, Bateman said the working title Project Artemis was likely to change.[2] He left the project the following month, citing creative differences,[3] and was later replaced by Greg Berlanti. The search for a new director and Berlanti's availability changed the production schedule, forcing Evans to drop out as well. In July, Channing Tatum entered negotiations to replace him.[4] In September, Jim Rash joined the cast.[5] Ray Romano, Anna Garcia and Woody Harrelson would be added in the following months.[6][7][8]

Filming began on October 27, 2022, in Atlanta, with a casting call issued seeking extras to play NASA employees and FBI agents.[9]
