The film's development took years, with several scripts and directors. In 1997, Sommers successfully premiered his version, a more adventurous and romantic take on the source material. Filming took place in Morocco and the UK; the crew endured dehydration, sandstorms, and shooting snakes on location in the Sahara Desert. Industrial Light & Magic provided many of the visual effects, combining live action and computer-generated imagery to create the titular monster. The music was composed by Jerry Goldsmith.
