Production



and Julia Roberts star as a divorced couple in 'Ticket to Paradise'.

'Ticket to Paradise' is a co-production between Working Title Films, Smokehouse Pictures, and Red Om Films. Ol Parker and Daniel Pipski wrote the screenplay, and Parker directed. The film was announced by Universal Pictures on February 26, 2021. It reunites actors George Clooney and Julia Roberts after previously working on 'Ocean's Eleven' (2001), 'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind' (2002), 'Ocean's Twelve' (2004), and 'Money Monster' (2016). 'Deadline Hollywood' noted Universal's reluctance to sell the distributor rights to a streaming service in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and said it was "important to those wondering when film studios are going to stop selling pricey star packages to streamers". Billie Lourd joined the cast in March; Kaitlyn Dever was added to the cast in April; and Lucas Bravo was revealed to star in October. Clooney used a Keto-based regimen to lose weight in preparation for his role.

Principal photography took place in Queensland, Australia, between November 2021 and February 2022. Ole Bratt Birkeland was the cinematographer. The film received a grant of AU$6.4 million (US$4.92 million) from the Australian federal government. Paul Fletcher, the Australian Minister for Communications and the Arts, said the production generated at least 270 jobs and AU$47 million (US$36.2 million) for the local economy. Filming locations included the Whitsunday Islands, the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Mt Tamborine. Tangalooma Island Resort on Moreton Island, and The Palm Bay Resort on Long Island. Production was briefly put in hiatus in January 2022 due to the rise of COVID-19 cases in Queensland.

During post-production, Lorne Balfe composed the film's score.

Release



Universal Pictures released the film theatrically in Australia on September 15, 2022, and it is set to be released in the United Kingdom on September 20, 2022, and in the United States on October 21, 2022. It was originally set to be released in the US on September 30, 2022. The death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022 delayed the film's UK release from September 16 to September 20, 2022.
