The first scenes shot for the film were the most intense, according to Felix van Groeningen, and involved Timothée Chalamet's character being hospitalized for a drug-overdose. Chalamet was instructed to lose weight a couple weeks before the filming of the "hospitalization scenes," and subsequently rested to recover in order to complete the rest of the shoot. Chalamet has stated that there were numerous "doctor visits" and "close calls" during the shoot, saying "Your mind knows you're acting. But when you drop twenty pounds and you are under a rain machine for eight takes in a T-shirt, your body doesn't know you're acting."
The real Nic Sheff stated in a Q & A that the drawing book that David, Steve Carell in the movie finds of his son's addiction struggles was drawn by Nic's real life half brother Jasper Sheff.
Timothée Chalamet lost 18 lbs for his role as Nic Sheff. He also had a consultant and doctor on set to ensure his acting as a drug addict was realistic and authentic.
Co-screenwriter Luke Davies is himself a recovering addict. During the 80s, Davies developed a dependency on heroin, which led him on a path of self-destruction. He managed to overcome his addiction in 1990, and later turned his experiences into the novel "Candy", published in mid-1998. The novel was later turned into a film in 2006, with Davies co-penning the screenplay.
The editing of the film took 7 months in total, during which the movie was completely recut multiple times. Initially Nico Leunen, Van Groeningen's long-time collaborator, was not involved in the project; however, Van Groeningen became dissatisfied with the editing process and brought Leunen to Los Angeles to reconstruct the film.
"Nic Sheff: When I discovered drugs my world went from black and white to technicolor. I can never give that up. So I tell people what they want to hear."
"[from trailer] David Sheff: Do you know how much I love you? I love you more than everything. 4 & 6-Year-Old Nic Sheff: Everything? David Sheff: Everything... everything..."
