In 2024, Jason Blum spoke about collaborating with Collet-Serra for the film. He said:

"I’ve been trying to find the right project to work on with Jaume, in our system, for over a decade. The Woman in the Yard is the perfect match, a film that’s ambitious in scope but modest in budget that combines Jaume’s vision with the incomparable Danielle Deadwyler. Together with my friend Stephanie Allain, this is a real dream team and I’m excited to collaborate with them on the film."

In his career, Collet-Serra has directed several horror films, including House of Wax and Orphan. Both these films did well commercially. This film will mark his return to the genre after 15 years.

On the other hand, Jason Blum has consistently backed horror films, some of which became significant successes. This includes projects like Paranormal Activity and Insidious, among others. The production house has also produced several dramas that have received acclaim.
