Production
The spec script for Old Dads was noted in 2020.[1] In March 2022 it was announced that Bill Burr was co-writing, directing and starring in a project called Old Dads for Miramax and Burr’s own production company All Things Comedy. Announced as appearing alongside Burr were Bobby Cannavale And Bokeem Woodbine. The script was co-written by Ben Tishler, who is also producing alongside Burr, Bill Block, Monica Levinson and Mike Bertolina.[2] On 7 March it was revealed that Katie Aselton was playing Burr’s wife Leah.[3] On 8 March, 2022 Reign Edwards was added to the cast as Britney, Woodbine’s girlfriend.[4] Principal photography commenced in Los Angeles on 2 March, 2022 and disclosed as joining the cast were Jackie Tohn, Miles Robbins, Rachael Harris, Dash McCloud, Justin Miles, Natasha Leggero, Katrina Bowden, Josh Brener and Rory Scovel.[5] The feature was described as “semi-autobiographical” by The Hollywood Reporter, who interviewed Burr from his on-set trailer in April 2022, and that the screenplay was inspired by Burr and Tishler both experiencing fatherhood relatively late in life. Bertolina was quoted as calling it “Bill’s stand-up in a narrative form”.[6]
