On September 6, 2014, it was announced that Keanu Reeves and Ana de Armas would star together in the movie Daughter of God, and that Reeves and Robin Gurland would be producers of the film. On November 7, Remark Films boarded on its first project to co-finance the film. On November 8, Mira Sorvino joined the film.

Principal photography began in early November 2014 in New York City. On November 26, filming was taking place in Brooklyn.

The original story was a surreal bi-lingual drama, reminiscent of Pan's Labyrinth and Irreversible, that focused on child sexual abuse, violence against women, mass incarceration, and police violence committed under the pretense of the state's authority. However, the executives at Lionsgate Premiere thought they had been sold a Keanu Reeves cop-thriller.
