The film can be attributed to the tapes "The Others" (1966) and "Faceless", but at the same time, Tarsem Singh's film was shot according to the original script of Alex and David Pastor.

"Not in myself" became the director's first film where he did not work together with this artist. The shooting of the thriller began in October 2013, when the leading actors Ryan Reynolds and Ben Kingsley signed a contract. The place of work was the city of New Orleans, Louisiana. Interestingly, the machines used in the film to transfer the minds of the heroes were made on the basis of medical tomographs (CT scanners).
