According to Director Josh Janowicz, he originally wanted Drew Van Acker as Henry and Steven Strait as James but they however were cast in the opposite roles.
The film was shot in 18 days.
The robot in the movie poster is not Steven Strait. It's Italian model Danilo d'Agostino in a stock photo by photographer Stefano Cavoretto.
The racquetball scene was filmed at The Court Club & Albany Crossfit in Albany, New York.
Though director Josh Janowicz has directed many commercials and several short films, Life Like (2019) is his first feature-length film.
