The film is based on the 2006 book Imperial Life in the Emerald City by journalist Rajiv Chandrasekaran. It stars Matt Damon, Amy Ryan, and Greg Kinnear. Production began in January 2008 in Spain and will move on to Morocco. A release date has yet to be determined.

Damon joined the film with the assurance that production would conclude by April 14, 2008 so he could start working on the Steven Soderbergh film ‘The Informant’ on April 15, amidst the scheduling difficulties caused by Writers Guild of America strike.
