He nancy meyers the movie was the first announced by Deadline it will be in development on Netflix in April 2022. At the time, the project was described as an «ensemble comedy.»

Of course, the budget of a Netflix movie is not comparable to the budget of a traditional movie. As Joe Russo recently explained for the gray man (which exceeded $200 million), “Netflix is obviously different than other studios, because they have acquisitions that are against budget. And you know, when you say $200 million on Netflix, that’s different than $200 million, say, on Disney.»
Maria Venieu serves as a casting director on the film, with kira goldberg working on the project since the end of Netflix.
