Cast

Production

In July 2009, Universal Pictures bought the film rights to the prize-winning novel The Art of Racing in the Rain for Patrick Dempsey to star in.[1] The project has not been able to find a director.[2] After the project came to a halt with Universal Studios, Walt Disney Studios acquired the rights in January 2016. The film adaptation was to be produced by Neal Moritz.[3]

In 2017, screenwriter Mark Bomback revealed that the project was now set up at 20th Century Fox, saying, "I'm hoping the third time's the charm, and I'm optimistic that next year will be when it finally goes into production."[4]

Principal photography on the film began on May 9, 2018 in Vancouver, British Columbia.[5]

In July 2018 Patrick Dempsey was at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville, Ontario to shoot scenes for the movie. [6]
