This screen adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's stage play "The Wild Duck" (1884) includes additional material that was specifically written for the movie and did not exist in the source material.

One of a number of period cinema films that actor Jeremy Irons starred in during his early career. The pictures include Nijinsky (1980), The Mission (1986), The Wild Duck (1984), Swann in Love (1984) ("Swann in Love") and The French Lieutenant's Woman (1981).

Of the two movies that were first released in 1984 that starred actor Jeremy Irons, both were period costumer pictures, The Wild Duck (1984) and Swann in Love (1984) ("Swann in Love"). Both movies featured ornithological title references to birds, that is to ducks and swans.
