Starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in lead roles, Project Power comes from directors Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman who are known for two Paranormal Activity sequels (3, 4) and Catfish.

Foxx was last seen in the legal drama Just Mercy. Aside from Project Power, he has also voiced the Pixar animated feature Soul.
