Directed by Joseph Kosinski, Spiderhead was written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. It was made in the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, being shot in Queensland, Australia in November of 2020. The film’s manufacturing was instantly linked to the pandemic, being partially funded by the Australian authorities as a part of an initiative to spice up the nation’s economic system in the course of the well being disaster.
Produced as a Netflix unique, Spiderhead had its world premiere in Sydney, Australia earlier than its worldwide launch on the streaming platform. The world premiere was on June eleventh, 2022 at The Leisure Quarter, which is the closest the film got here to receiving a theatrical launch. It was then launched internationally on Netflix on June seventeenth, 2022.
