Premise

Set in 1955 in Detroit, No Sudden Move centers on a group of small-time criminals who are hired to steal what they think is a simple document. When their plan goes horribly wrong, their search for who hired them – and for what ultimate purpose – weaves them through all echelons of the race-torn, rapidly changing city.

Cast

Production

It was announced in November 2019 that Steven Soderbergh would direct the film, then titled Kill Switch, with Josh Brolin, Don Cheadle, Sebastian Stan and John Cena in consideration to star.[5][6] By March 2020, Jon Hamm and Cedric the Entertainer entered negotiations, with Brolin dropping out.[7] In May 2020, it was announced Cheadle, Stan and Hamm were confirmed, with Benicio del Toro, Ray Liotta, Amy Seimetz, Frankie Shaw and George Clooney joining the cast.[8] Michael Barnes underwent a rigorous diet of no carbs and heavy protein powder for several months to prepare for his role.

Filming was due to begin on April 1, 2020 but was delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Soderbergh stated he was hoping to restart in September.[9] The film was retitled No Sudden Move, and began filming in Detroit on September 28, with David Harbour, Brendan Fraser, Kieran Culkin, Noah Jupe, Bill Duke and Julia Fox joining the cast, while actors Stan, Cena and Clooney departed due to production delays.[10] In October, Matt Damon was added to the cast in a cameo role.[11] Production wrapped on November 12.[12]

No Sudden Move will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 18, 2021.[13] It is scheduled to be released on HBO Max on July 1, 2021.[14]
