The movie entered production in 2005 but stalled due to a lack of financing. In his attempts to adapt "On the Road," Salles traveled the same cross-country route as the book's author and even filmed a documentary, "In Search of On the Road."

"The film greatly benefited from the extra time we had to conceptualize it," Salles told Variety of his lengthy journey in adapting the novel. "The unedited scroll version was published recently and inspired a new version of the screenplay written by Jose Rivera that is at the same time more luminous, daring and muscular than the one we had at the start."
