Powell and Pressburger had suffered through four box office disappointments in a row before this film, which is one reason that [[Bing Crosby]], [[Maurice Chevalier]] and [[Orson Welles]] were approached about playing the roles of Alfred, Eisenstein and Orlovsky – and ''Oh... Rosalinda!!'' too was not commercially successful.<ref>Angelini, Sergio [http://www.screenonline.org.uk/film/id/459967/index.html Oh...Rosalinda!!

Several of the singing cast would later appear on stage and record in the original piece; Rothenberger and Barabás together sang in excerpts from the operetta for [[Electrola]] around the time of the film, and Rothenberger made further full recordings under [[Heinrich Hollreiser|Hollreiser]] (1960), [[Oskar Danon|Danon]] (1964) and [[Willi Boskovsky|Boskovsky]] (1971), for the latter switching to Rosalinde.<ref name="operadis"/> Walter Berry made five recordings of ''Fledermaus'' - singing Frank (1959, 1964, 1971) and Falke (1960, video 1980).<ref name="operadis">[https://www.operadis-opera-discography.org.uk/CLIIFLED.HTM - CAPON'S LISTS OF OPERA RECORDINGS (CLOR) 74 recordings of Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauß II] accessed 3 March 2020.</ref> Walbrook had played Strauss in ''[[Walzerkrieg]]'' in 1933, and in ''[[Vienna Waltzes (film)|Wiener Walzer]]'' in 1951, both German-language films.
