Paul seemed to enter tha picture after Michael K. Williams could not make it back for reshoots. Ron came in after Phil Lord and Christopher Miller left the project over “creative differences.”
The film also stars Alden Ehrenreich, Donald Glover, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Joonas Suotamo. It will be released May 25, 2018.
