Production

Seagal said he was attracted to the lead role because "I’m always trying to find something a little bit different from what people have seen me do before. I wanted to play somebody kind of mysterious and on the edge, so you don’t really know if you like him or hate him until the middle of the movie." He says he wrote his character's line "I want to do one good thing before I die even if I die in the process of doing it”[3]

It was one of several films Seagal made with Keoni Waxman. "I think that Keoni is one of the brightest young men out there," said Seagal. "I think he’s a very good director. I think he has a wonderful story-mind, which is very important – in other words, he doesn’t just have to film what’s on the page; he understands what’s on the page. I think he’s a wonderful director who understands editing, looping, dubbing, mixing, foley… he just understands all of that stuff. He’s a great friend: very ethical and very moral."[4]

Waxman confirmed that Seagal wrote his character's opening monologue. He says everyone on the film "was just a little bit excited about the idea of hey, this one Steven wants to do something a little different. He was much more engaged with the character, much more engaged with the storyline, much more engaged with the idea that he had to have this absolution for this thing."[5]

The film was shot in Romania, New Orleans, Louisiana and Atlanta, Georgia.
