Development
In 2013, Chris Columbus found plans to make a animated movie based on the SCP: Containment Breach game. However, the movie was caught in development hell for a very long time. That all changed in 2016 when Columbus figured out the idea to make it live-action instead of animated. He hired Nathan Ruegger to produce to the film with Harvey Mason Jr. composing the songs.

Casting
Columbus hired Alex Hirsch as the casting director in 2017. JP Karliak was originally set to play the role as Dr. Alan Bright but he declined the request but instead played a store customer. Joseph Mazzello then accepted the role as Alan with Elizabeth Olsen as his assistant. Hirsch then hired Erik Adahal to design some of the SCPs noises in the sound department.

Adahal provided Godzilla’s roar in the 2014 film of the same name directed by Gareth Edwards. Hirsch then hired Doug Lawerence and Bryce Papenbrook to play Dr. Bobby Povenmire and Mike Vanola while he hired Gary A. Hecker and Frank Welker to play the vocal effects of the SCPs. Adahal worked as one of the hardest jobs in the film to record and pitch some sounds of animals.

He used monkeys screeching three times for SCP 096, a male and female elephant’s belowing for 682, and a raptor’s girl-y grunt for 999 and various other voice clips from animals from real life, places, and movies. Gary Cole and Justin Long played minor characters such as Tom Brown and Joey May.

Soundtrack
Like before, the soundtrack was done by Harvey Mason Jr., who will compose the upcoming 2022 film, Ladybug & Cat Noir Awakening. The soundtrack was released on ITunes 3 weeks after the movie’s release. The songs were mostly sung by Selena Gomez, Josh Peck, Becky G., Flo Rida, and Tom Cruise.
