James R. Hansen, biographer of Neil Armstrong, co-produced the film. It is thanks to him that the project was able to succeed. Indeed, the astronaut had full confidence in the writer, who became his friend over the years. "For Neil, as long as you followed Jim's path, there was no problem in making this movie," said producer Wyck Godfrey, who had the chance to meet Armstrong before his death on August 25, 2012. After his death, it was essential to have the support of his family. His sons met screenwriter Josh Singer and director Damien Chazelle and were convinced by their concern for accuracy and authenticity.
