This is the debut feature of Locksmith Animation.

There are several B-Bots that resemble Stormtroopers and Darth Vader from Star Wars as well as Iron Man, Black Panther, and Captain Marvel from Marvel. 20th Century Studios, Lucasfilm, and Marvel Entertainment are all subsidiaries of The Walt Disney Company, who distributed the film.

Inside the Bubble control center, one of the techs is dressed like Dennis Nedry (Wayne Knight) from Jurassic Park (1993), complete with loud Hawaiian shirt.

Jack Dylan Grazer first began recording lines for the role of Barney in 2017 when he was 13 and did not finalize his role until early 2021 by the time he was 18. Grazer said that it became difficult to maintain his 13-year-old prepubescent voice throughout the years of recording.

Zach Galifianakis was instructed to perform much of his lines for the role of Ron in a deadpan voice, to convey that Ron is run by an algorithm and is not very emotional. He commented that this was challenging and unusual, because he had never had directors in the past ask for "less" emotion. Smith praised Helms performance as the role of Graham for skilfully improvising lines and contributing additional "touches" to the film, saying "You give him the lines and he'll do six versions of his own and he's hilarious"
