Production[]
The project was developed years back at New Regency as a Brad Pitt/James Gray vehicle, but it stalled. The Russos quietly have been developing it for years.[2] But by October 2015 he and Gray were no longer involved with the film.
The Russos have been developing the project for some time at Sony with Charlize Theron in talks to star in a genderswapped version of the film, and when the package went back on the market over the summer, Netflix was quick to acquire it and set Gosling and Evans to star.[3][4]
Out of Covid concerns Netflix had pushed the pause button on The Gray Man while the picture is in pre-production.[5]
