Bamigboye reported that Chadwick together with producers Alison Owen and Harvey Weinstein, decided to cast Vikander for the film.[4][5]
In 2014, Alison Owen partnered with Harvey Weinstein to restart the film after re-acquiring the rights to the film from Paramount Pictures.[6]Steven Spielberg had originally offered to buy the film rights.[7] In October 2013, Dane DeHaan was in talks to join the cast.[8][9] In February 2014, Christoph Waltz joined the cast.[10] In April 2014, Holiday Grainger, Cara Delevingne, and Jack O’Connell joined the cast.[11][12][13] In June 2014, Judi Dench was cast as The Abbess of St. Ursula, who takes in orphaned children.[14] That same month Tom Hollander, Cressida Bonas, and David Harewood joined the cast.[15] and David Harewood.[16][17] In August 2014, Matthew Morrison joined.[18] Deborah Moggach author of the novel also appears in the film.[7]
The crew of Tulip Fever includes cinematographer Eigil Bryld, production designer Simon Elliott, costume designer Michael O’Connor, hair and make-up designer Daniel Phillips and editor Rick Russell.[19] Tom Stoppard has adapted the screenplay for the film.[20] The London-based Welsh portrait artist Jamie Routley did the original portraits that are seen in the film.[21] Danny Elfman composed the film's score.[22]
