The film has had a few major setbacks. Director Gavin O’Connor (Miracle, Warrior) is directing after the original director Lynne Ramsay (We Need To Talk About Kevin) didn’t show up to the first day of filming. Ramsay apparently left the project due to creative and contract issues.

Joel Edgerton, who now plays the ex-lover was originally supposed to play the villainous gang leader. He switched over when Michael Fassbender dropped out. Fassbender was supposed to play the ex-lover originally. The movie then picked up Jude Law to play the villain, »
