On June 2, 2016, it was announced that Paul Thomas Anderson would direct a fashion drama film set in 1950s New York from his own script, with Daniel Day-Lewis attached as star.[5] Megan Ellison would produce the film through Annapurna Pictures, along with JoAnne Sellar and Anderson.[5][8] On September 8, 2016, the film was picked up to be distributed by Focus Features stateside and Universal Pictures internationally.[9] Late January 2017, Lesley Manville, Richard Graham, and Vicky Krieps were also cast in the film.[7][6]

Principal photography on the film began in late January 2017 in Lythe, England.[10][8] Filming also occurred in spring 2017 in the London neighbourhood of Fitzrovia, in Fitzroy Square, and a car chase scene in Grafton Mews.[11]
