The plot of the film follows a woman created to be an ideal wife for a brilliant entrepreneur. However, she rejects her creator and is forced to flee into a world that "sees her as a monster," Deadline reported.

While she's on the run, the woman "finds her true identity, her surprising power, and the strength to remake herself as her own creation."

Along with Johansson, Jonathan Lia of These Pictures will produce the film. It will be written by Lauren Schuker Blum and Rebecca Angelo and directed by Sebastin Lelio.

The film will be the latest in the Apple-A24 partnership. Past Apple-A24 films include "On the Rocks," which stars Sofia Coppola and Bill Murray and debuted on Apple TV+ on Friday, and Grace Kaufman-headed "The Sky is Everywhere."
