I doubt production is set to start this summer unless they mean pre-production. But even if it films this year I guess that means it shoots ahead of Jekyll.

Tumblr is already having a fit. about him being problematic and the white washing of the movie... they are mad, an Israeli-Jewish actor wasn't hired for the part.... considering an Israeli director, who actually does Israeli TV hired him for the part... but you know who people on tumblr know better than a director.

Tumblr seems to always be on the verge of outrage about something. Reading some posts one would think they're David Duke, thinking being Jewish means not being white. Many don't seem to understand that Israeli is a Nationality not a Race, or know that a significant part of the population are either descendant from Europeans or immigrated from Europe. This is also based on a true story and as you said the writer/director is Israeli and I'm sure he knows more about the characters and who should be playing them than we do.

This director and writer, is the one who wrote the original Israeli tv series in which Homeland is based, then he also worked in this US tv version... the guy knows his way around, I would believe... Also, this is an Israeli/American co-production, multinational co productions like this, need to have a number o actors of certain nationality, for example the American production, probably asked the director to hired at least 2 or 3 American actors in certain parts and then he can hire the rest of the cast in other nationalities. And yes, Israel is an State in which most of his population are descendant of inmigrant population, there are people of all ethnicity in there.

A description of the team from Gad Shimron's book. It looks like names were changed (if Chris plays the commander then Raff might have wanted something more Israeli sounding than Danny) or maybe Raff's going with fictionalized versions.

Considering who is writing it, and directing it also who are producing the film, it could not be more Israeli!! yet people on Sm are screaming white washing

With the Avengers movies not being filmed simultaneously but back to back and the first ending in July, Chris might indeed have time to film this in between Avengers films since this is probably a 4-6 week shoot.

I thought Chris said he was on set for most of the rest of the shoot? Unless that's now changed with the announcement of the 2 Avengers movies being filmed separately. Mind you, Chris must have known for a while this was the plan! If he is filming Avengers now non-stop until October/November when's he going to have time to fit in this, Jekyll and rehearsals for the Broadway play? He's going to be busy over the next year certainly!!
