The short was created to promote Studio City, a hotel casino resort located in Macau. It is Scorsese's first film to feature both De Niro and DiCaprio. Both actors had individually collaborated with Scorsese several times in the past, but the three had never worked on the same project together. They would eventually work together once again for the 2023 feature film Killers of the Flower Moon.
