Tyrone Power, who was playing Solomon and was co-producer of the film, had completed shooting more than half of the film when he collapsed during a duelling scene with George Sanders. He died a few minutes later. Power was replaced by Yul Brynner, who refilmed all of Power's scenes. Power, however, is still visible in the film in long shots.
