The film is based on Jack Kerouac's novel “On the Road” (1957).
On May 8, 2012, “IFC Films”, “Sundance Selects”, and “AMC” became the film's distributors in the United States.
Kristen Stewart agreed to a fee of less than $200,000 after the film's budget was drastically cut. Stewart remained committed to the role of Marylou because she greatly enjoys Jack Kerouac's original novel.
Filming began in August 2010 in Montreal, Canada. From Montreal, the production moved to Quebec, Calgary, Mexico, Arizona, Louisiana, California, Argentina, and Chile.

The character of Viggo Mortensen is based on writer William Burroughs. A film, "Naked Lunch" (1991), was made based on his work, "The Naked Lunch," by David Cronenberg.
People did not count down to the New Year in 1949. This tradition began in the 1970s with the advent of digital clocks.
