Director Alejandro Monteverde and co-writer Rod Barr say they wanted their film — which has been associated with QAnon and become highly polarized even as it’s grossed $172.8 million — to bring an apolitical awareness to an important matter, which "is not a conservative or a liberal issue."

Odd choice to hire Jim "Adrenochrome" Caviezel, in that Case. Why not any other actor that is not already associated with this issue?

That's a fair point, and actually looking at the film's budget, I'm guessing it's because he was a good actor who was so passionate about the issue that he was okay with making the movie for free.
