Production
The film was first announced in 2012 although the closure of Paramount's InSurge label put the film's release in jeopardy.[4] The first hints that the film was connected to the Cloverfield brand came when a piece of the viral marketing for 10 Cloverfield Lane included a soundclip that was supposedly from the International Space Station.[5]
On March 29, 2016, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and David Oyelowo were confirmed to be cast in the film.[6] On April 12, 2016, Variety reported that John Krasinski was in early talks to join the film to play one of the astronauts,[7] but his casting was unclear because of his commitment with a television series.[8] On May 5, 2016, Elizabeth Debicki was cast in the film also to play one of the astronauts,[8] and following her on May 10, 2016, Daniel Brühl also joined the film.[9] Chris O'Dowd and Zhang Ziyi were added to the cast on May 26, 2016.[10] The following day, May 27, 2016, John Ortiz and Aksel Hennie joined the film.[11] Cinematographer Dan Mindel was confirmed to join the film from his resume.[12]
Filming began on June 10, 2016.[11]
