The movie is based on "Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End," a 2014 non-fiction book about end-of-life care written by surgeon Atul Gawande.

 

In a July 2021 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Lucy Liu opened up about working with Murray on the 2001 film "Charlie's Angels," alleging the comedian started to "hurl insults" at her while filming a scene.

 

A representative for Searchlight Pictures confirmed to USA TODAY that production on the film has been halted at this time, but no further information was provided. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Murray and Ansari for comment and further details.
