The screenplay was written by David Webb Peoples, who debuted with the screenplay of Blade Runner (1982). Peoples had already written and sold the script for this movie sometime in the 1970s, but it took around 20 years before it got made into a movie. It was initially optioned as a project for Francis Ford Coppola and John Malkovich, but this fell through. It was subsequently bought by Clint Eastwood, but again, many years passed without anything happening (Eastwood was saving it for the right moment in his life). It was actually at a party that David and his wife Janet Peoples happened to meet Eastwood, and Janet boldly asked him if he was ever going to make this movie. Eastwood answered that he was just about to announce that.
