In January 2023, it was announced that Madeleine Sackler would be directing O Horizon from a script she wrote, with Maria Bakalova and David Strathairn leading the cast. Later that month, it was announced that Adam Pally would also star in the film. Production wrapped in the fall of 2022.

In January 2023, Artnet reported that the film's storyline sparked objections with some of its crew, who felt uncomfortable with how closely it resembled Sackler's relationship with her own father, Jonathan Sackler, who died of cancer in 2020, and how it portrayed him in a good light. She was previously also criticized for not denouncing her family's company Purdue Pharma, infamous for its role in the opioid epidemic.
