Jeopardy was Barbara Stanwyck's first film after taking a year off from her screen career. Her original intention had been to retire after La confessione della signora Doyle (1952) (filmed in 1951 but not released until 1952) but after spending some time in Europe, she said, "I simply didn't know what to do with myself, so I went back to work."
"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on
March 15, 1954 with Barbara Stanwyck and Barry Sullivan reprising their film roles.
