The film was officially announced in October 2016, with C. V. Kumar coming together with newcomer director Venkat Pakkar, an erstwhile assistant of Shankar, for a project titled 4G. G. V. Prakash Kumar and Sathish were signed on to play the film's leading roles and attended a launch event held in Chennai during the middle of the month.[2] Prakash Kumar revealed that he would work on the film, simultaneously alongside several other films including Adangathey.[3][4] Suresh Menon, who acted in several Tamil films in the early 1990s, announced that 4G would mark his comeback and subsequently joined the cast in later October 2016.[5]

The film began production in Hyderabad during mid-November 2016.[6] The film progressed throughout 2017, and its theatrical release was delayed throughout 2018, as Prakash Kumar worked simultaneously on many projects.[7]

In May 2020, Venkat Pakkar died following a road accident before the film's release, making 4G his only film as a director.[8]
