Chris Evans was originally cast as Evan McCauley, but had to drop out of the film due to scheduling conflicts, and was replaced by Mark Wahlberg.
The movie is based on the book "The Reincarnationist Papers" by D. Eric Maikranz. He found it difficult to catch the attention of a literary agent that would sell the book to Hollywood. On the first page of the book, he offered a commission to anyone who could get his book into Hollywood. Eighteen months later, he got an email from a Hollywood assistant director who found his book in a hostel in Nepal. In 2017, Paramount Pictures bought the rights.
Bathurst asks Evan, "Which of these items are yours?", which is the same test given to potential reincarnations of the Dalai Llama.

As Evan brings the sword to Ronnie, one of the lines goes "Hattori Hanzo, yo?" in reference to the master Japanese sword smith in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill, vol. 1". Hattori Hanzo was actually a samurai leader who lived in the 16th century Japan.
