Comment (by Martin Kuhn):

 Ok, I managed to narrow down the problem. My Query is using annotations to
 use the aggregation function MIN.

 {{{
 Project.objects \
         .prefetch_related('buyout_set') \
         .prefetch_related('teammember_set') \
         .annotate(min_expiry_date=Min('buyout__expiry_date',
                                       filter=Q(buyout__is_archived=False,
 buyout__is_deleted=False))
                   ) \
         .filter(Q(min_expiry_date__gte=(now + expiryInterval))
                 & Q(min_expiry_date__lte=(now + expiryInterval +
 timedelta(days=1))))

 }}}

 I tested the generated query below using  `mysqlclient` and found that it
 does return the annotated value as a string. The problem is a custom
 annotation "MIN(Date)". Probably mysqlclient has no type info for this
 custom value, since it could be any/multiple types. (E.g. using an IF
 statement.)
 However this auto generated query could be rewritten to use CAST(
 "annotation" as DateTime).


 The resulting query is
