The filming of The Raven began on November 9, 2010 in Belgrade and Budapest. Jeremy Renner was originally going to star in the film but he dropped out so that he could star in Mission Impossible 4. Ewan Mcgregor was also in talks for a role, but he also dropped out. On 28 August 2010 it was confirmed that John Cusack will play Edgar Allan Poe in the film. Joaquin Phoenix was also approached to star at one point.
The first images from the set were revealed on November 15, 2010. A trailer for the film was released online 7 October 2011. This date is significant because it also marks the anniversary of Poe's death at age 40 in 1849.
