Production

According to producer Joel Silver, Joel and Ethan Coen originally wrote the script for Suburbicon in 1986, soon after the release of Blood Simple.[7] In 2005, it was reported that George Clooney would star in and direct Suburbicon. It would be produced by the Coen brothers.[8]

On December 8, 2015, it was reported that the film was set to begin filming in October 2016, with Matt Damon, Julianne Moore, and Josh Brolin joining the cast.[9] Oscar Isaac and Woody Harrelson later joined the cast.[10]

On August 31, 2016, Noah Jupe and Glenn Fleshler joined the cast. Jupe would play Damon's character's son, while Fleshler would play a hitman.[11] On September 27, 2016, Harrelson said in an interview that he would not be in Suburbicon due to scheduling conflicts.[12] As of October 11, 2016, Suburbicon has begun filming in Los Angeles.[13]

Alexandre Desplat composed the film's score.[14] In August 2017, it was reported that Brolin had been cut from the film.[15]

Paramount Pictures will release the film on October 27, 2017.[16]
