Krzykowski will direct from a script he adapted from John Gardner's novel of the same title. Brian Henson, Vince Raisa, Krzykowski, Jay Glazer, Dennis Berardi, and Jon D. Wagner will all produce for The Jim Henson Company. Bridges will executive produce alongside John Sayles, Tamara Birkemoe, and Joe Jenckes of Ashland Hill Media Finance, which will fund the film.

"Grendel represents everything I love about the movies. John Gardner's mad masterpiece cleverly tackles what it is to be human through the wild-eyed lens of a monster," said Krzykowski. "It's an honour to work with such a remarkable group of storytellers, all of whom seek to bring something wonderful and unexpected to audiences now," as per The Hollywood Reporter.
