Production
Ernst Lubitsch was the initial director, but fell ill and had to be replaced by Otto Preminger.[1] However, Lubitsch directed the rehearsals, and he worked with Edwin Justus Mayer in the scripting process. A Royal Scandal is a remake of Lubitsch's silent film Forbidden Paradise. All of the scenes were developed under Lubitsch. So it is considered a "Lubitsch film".[citation needed]
