It draws on interviews with the director, cast, and crew, and covers the city of Troy built in Morocco, the palace of Ithaca constructed in Los Angeles, the life-sized Trojan Horse, and the Cyclops's cave. Ancient Greek supervision is by Shishin Fujimura, who handled mythology and history for the film's Japanese subtitles.

Genkosha previously published 'The Making of TENET' in 2020 for the Japanese release, also translated by Masae Tomihara and supervised by Danshirou Jingū. Purchasers at select theaters, bookstores, and the Filmarks store get limited postcards in three designs while supplies last.
