At Midnight was first written by Giovanni M. Porta with
Diego Boneta.
Jonah Feingold later signed on to direct and helped write a second draft with Maria Hinojos. Most of the film's starring cast was announced February 2022 as it began shooting in
Mexico in February 2022. The film was written with a desire to showcase the beauty of Mexico that is often overshadowed by its frequent portrayal as a desert. The goal was to have Mexico City feel like another character in the film akin to portrayals of Paris or New York. Director Jonah Feingold credited his Mexican production crew, Diego Boneta, and cinematographer Chuy Chávez with helping him capture the aesthetic of the city. == Release ==
