The Miracle Club

Producers Joshua D. Maurer and Alixandre Witlin have been trying to make this project for over 18 years. The project was originally sold by Maurer to HBO in 2005 with writer James Smallhorne also attached to direct with a cast that included Maggie Smith, Kathy Bates, Joan Allen, Claire Danes and Brenda Blethyn, but the project did not go forward. Maurer and Witlin never gave up hope or faith in the film and continued year after year after year to find the financing to make this movie. After getting constant rejections, Maurer and Witlin finally found interest from Lionsgate UK and Embankment to finance based on an extensive rewrite that Maurer authored in collaboration with Tim Prager, whom Maurer hired. Maurer and Witlin then used this new draft to get commitments from Smith, Bates and Linney. In addition, Maurer and Witlin then hired director Thaddeus O'Sullivan and UK producer Chris Curling and together they brought on and hired Irish producers ShinAwil and BCP. The film was then further delayed due to COVID three more times.

The nun says there have been only twenty-three miracles at Lourdes (up to the time In which the film is set). There actually had been sixty-two. UPDATE: At some time prior to April 2024, the filmmakers must have changed the film to correct this, because the line now states sixty-two.
