A 2018 article by The New Yorker details that Illeana Douglas's casting in the film came as a hush settlement from CBS media executive Leslie Moonves so she wouldn't follow with a potential sexual assault lawsuit over another project. Douglas was initially cast on a TV sitcom and after rejecting advances from the producer, she was fired from the sitcom. Douglas confirmed the incident in the wake of MeToo movement when Moonves was accused of numerous allegations of abuse and harassment, which ended his career on CBS.
The film cast includes two Oscar winners: Vanessa Redgrave and Nick Vallelonga; and two Oscar nominees: Jennifer Tilly and Peter Bogdanovich.
