Original language =/= spoken language. The Original Language field denotes where a movie is from and corresponds to the production countries. The Spoken Languages field corresponds to the languages actually spoken in the original version of the film. This is a US-UK-Poland co-production first released in the US which is why the Original Language is set to English.

That's ridiculous, there is not a single line of English in the entire movie so how can you call it English? If the criteria is the production companies then we need to change all the StudioCanal films like Hot Fuzz, Paddington and Terminator 2 to French.

By your logic, the film’s original language would be Polish then. As it was produced mostly by Poland.

The main production companies for this movie are A24, Access Entertainment and Film4. The first 2 are from the United States and the third is from the United Kingdom. The other companies are only coproducers. So, English is the correct original language.
