Facts about
Warners considered filming this project with Errol Flynn twice previously, on 1939 and 1945. The 1945 proposed production was scuttled by a labor dispute. It was to be directed by Raoul Walsh, scored by Erich Wolfgang Korngold and co-star Victor Francen and Rosemary DeCamp as the King and Queen, with George Coulouris as the Duke. Only Jerry Austin and Alan Hale survived from the 1945 production, although S.Z. Sakall was also considered for the Leporello role.
In "The Films of Errol Flynn," it was alleged that Errol Flynn's drinking necessitated a good deal of "shooting around" him, but on the DVD commentary director Vincent Sherman says that this only happened once.
