Sam Worthington was attached to star in This Means War, but dropped out and was replaced by Tom Hardy.[2] Bradley Cooper was also attached to star in the film, but left the project. Seth Rogen also turned down a role.
Principal photography took place in Vancouver from September 13 to December 1, 2010.
This Means War was previously scheduled for wide release on February 14, but 20th Century Fox postponed its opening to February 17, 2012, in order "to avoid a head-on confrontation with" Screen Gems' The Vow, which had been "expected to dominate" the box office on Valentine's Day. Instead, it was sneak previewed that "Tuesday evening at between 2,000 and 2,500 locations nationwide." During its first weekend ending February 19, it opened at #5 behind Safe House, The Vow, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, and Journey 2: The Mysterious Island with $17.4 million from 3,189 locations.
