    • Production

    In 1947 Republic Pictures announced they had purchased a script, Sons of the Musketeers by Aubrey Wisberg and Jack Pollexfen. Eagle Lion also announced they would make a film called Sons of the Musketeers which concerned MGM who were making a version of The Three Musketeers. Eventually the project went to RKO where it was set up as a vehicle for Cornel Wilde. Lewis Allen was announced as director on 15 November 1949.

    Filming started 14 December 1949.

    MGM had some difficulties depicting Cardinal Richelieu in The Three Musketeers so the filmmakers decided to not show Cardinal Mazarin, even though he was in the original script.
