Production

In March 2021, it was reported Natalie Erika James would direct the psychological thriller film Apartment 7A. James co-wrote the screenplay with Christian White, based on a previous draft of the script written by Skylar James. John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller produced the film, which was a joint-venture production between Paramount Players, Sunday Night Productions and Platinum Dunes. Following the success of the A Quiet Place franchise, the project was among several scripts that the studio was developing with a similar tone. Apartment 7A was chosen from those projects to quickly enter pre-production.[5]

Principal photography began on March 15, 2022, in London.[6] In April, Garner was spotted filming scenes for the 1950s-based movie in and around Beppe's Cafe, in the East End of London.[7] In June 2022, it was announced that principal photography had wrapped production in the United Kingdom.[4] Later that month, Bloody Disgusting reported that the film was secretly a prequel to the film Rosemary's Baby.[1] In August 2022, the Writers Guild of America determined the film's final writing credits, revealing it to be based on the 1967 novel by Ira Levin.[8]
