Producers Ryan Moss and Dan Bowden wrote the original screenplay for ''Wandering Soul'' in 1985. It was initially conceptualized as a psychological thriller and was sent to Timemaker Studios. After several rejections, Moss and Bowden invited Kenny Vuong to modify the script's treatment in 1998. Vuong's Vietnamese heritage contributed to rewriting the script into one more focused on war, leading to a script closer to the final version of the movie. The screenplay was picked up by Arlington Pictures, whose board of directors called for further refinement to the writing's treatment. On September 9, 2001, a deal was reached between Arlington Pictures and Moss's Eldritch Studios, and production was green-lit shortly thereafter. | Producers Ryan Moss and Dan Bowden wrote the original screenplay for ''Wandering Soul'' in 1985.

Vuong's Vietnamese heritage contributed to rewriting the script into one more focused on war, leading to a script closer to the final version of the movie. He was reportedly inspired after researching Sierra's involvement in Vietnam, as well as the [[United People's Committees]]. The [[Medellín massacre]] during the [[Colombia War]] was used as the source for the civilian massacre depicted at the beginning of the film.
