The film's director Matt D'Elia said of the project: "I could not be more excited to make my film, A Void. With uncertainty all around us these days – everywhere we look, in all shapes and forms – I believe this is the best possible time to make this kind of movie. And I'm beyond thrilled for Visit Films to showcase the film at AFM, and to help bring A Void to audiences all around the world."

Aya Cash, is best known for her stint in season 2 of The Boys as the sadistic and racist Stormfront, though she made a surprise appearance in its third season.
