"Bloodlines" is directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, known for their work on the live-action "Kim Possible" TV movie. Jon Watts, director of the MCU "Spider-Man" trilogy, penned the story outline and serves as executive producer alongside his agent wife, Dianne McGunigle. The screenplay was primarily written by Lori Evans Taylor and Guy Busick, co-writer of "Ready or Not."
