The film, directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, has been in development for several years, as Johnson was cast in his starring role in 2014. Though the developmental process has been slow, especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic, filming is set to begin in April. In addition to his role as the lead, Johnson is a producer of the film, which will also star Noah Centineo, Aldis Hodge, Quintessa Swindell and Pierce Brosnan as various members of the Justice Society of America.
