Development

On June 20, 2011, Paramount Pictures announced that Warren Beatty would write, direct and star in an upcoming untitled film, his first directorial effort since 1998's Bulworth and his first acting role since 2001's Town & Country.[4] Beatty had been working on a biopic based on Howard Hughes' life for more than 40 years, after meeting him in a hotel lobby in the early 1970s and being fascinated by him.[5][6] On September 16, 2011, Paramount dropped the project and New Regency Pictures picked it up.[7] The film then stayed in the development stages for almost three years.[8] On February 24, 2014, it was reported that New Regency and RatPac Entertainment were producing and financing the film,[9] with an estimated $30 million budget.[1]

Casting

On June 22, 2011, it was announced that Beatty was looking for an ensemble cast for the film, with him playing the role of Howard Hughes. He met with actors Andrew Garfield, Alec Baldwin, Annette Bening, Shia LaBeouf, Jack Nicholson, Evan Rachel Wood, and Rooney Mara to co-star.[10] On November 14, 2011, Felicity Jones was added to the cast of the film to play the female lead,[11] but later dropped out of the role due to production delays.[12] Justin Timberlake and Alden Ehrenreich were up for male lead, while Bening, Nicholson, Baldwin, and Owen Wilson were rumored for other roles.[13] Almost three years later, on February 24, 2014, it was announced that Ehrenreich, Lily Collins, Matthew Broderick, and Bening had been cast in the film; Ehrenreich portraying Hughes' driver Frank Forbes, and Collins his love interest.[9] On February 27, 2014, it was reported that Candice Bergen had joined the ensemble cast, portraying Hughes' secretary Nadine Henly.[14] On March 6, 2014, Martin Sheen was cast in an unknown role.[15] That same month, Chace Crawford was added to the cast in an unknown role. He was seen on the set of the film with Collins in late March.[16] Taissa Farmiga later joined the cast.[17] In April 2014, it was revealed that Brooklyn Decker was asked by Beatty to come and improvise on the film, and had no idea if her scenes would make the final cut.[18] On May 9, 2014, Alec Baldwin joined the cast of the film, portraying Bob Mayhew (Robert Maheu), the reclusive billionaire's lawyer.[19] In March 2015, The New York Times reported that Dabney Coleman would co-star in an unspecified role.[1] In February 2016, Steve Coogan's casting in the film was reported.[20] That same month, Farmiga revealed in an interview that Ed Harris and Amy Madigan would be portraying her character's parents.[21] In April 2016, the casting of Josh Casaubon was reported.[22]

Filming

Principal photography for the film began on February 24, 2014, in Los Angeles, California.[23][24] Studio production took place at the Sunset Gower Studios in Hollywood.[1] On location filming took place at multiple locations, including S. Grand Avenue, Musso & Frank Grill, The Northmere[25] in Los Feliz, and the Millennium Biltmore Hotel.[26][27][28] It was reported that production had completed on June 8, 2014 after 74 filming days.[29] Beatty returned for pick-ups and re-shoots in late February 2015.[1]
