| In June 2014, [[Viacom 18 Motion Pictures]], the producers of the Hindi film ''[[Queen (2014 film)|Queen]]'' (2014), made an official announcement that they hold sold the remake rights for the Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada versions of their film to [[Thiagarajan]], who would make the films through his production studio, Staar Movies. Viacom put a caveat in the agreement that the principal photography of any of the films must start by 8 June 2017, else the rights would revert to Viacom.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/thiagarajan-bags-rights-to-remake-queen-down-south/article6104057.ece|title=Thiagarajan bags rights to remake 'Queen' down south|first=|last=Ians|date=11 June 2014|publisher=|via=www.thehindu.com}}</ref> Soon after the announcement in June 2014, several Indian directors and actresses expressed their desire to do the film, but Thiagarajan maintained that no one had been finalised and that he was still considering his options.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.deccanchronicle.com/140627/entertainment-tollywood/article/radha-mohan-direct-queen|title=Radha Mohan to direct Queen?|date=27 June 2014|publisher=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/priya-anand-is-ready-to-be-tamil-queen-tamil-news-112263.html|title=- Tamil Movie News – IndiaGlitz.com|publisher=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bollywoodlife.com/south-gossip/queen-south-indian-remake-thiagarajan-yet-to-finalise-the-leading-lady/|title=Queen South Indian remake: Thiagarajan yet to finalise the leading lady!|first=|last=IANS|publisher=}}</ref> Thiagarajan announced his potential plans of casting [[Lisa Haydon]] to reprise her supporting role and for his son [[Prashanth (actor)|Prashanth]] to act in the film, but remarked that he was unsure if Prashanth would accept to play a character with "grey shades".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.indiawest.com/entertainment/south_indian/thiagarajan-to-remake-queen-in-four-languages/article_34ac009a-fe4b-11e3-a05e-001a4bcf887a.html|title=Thiagarajan to Remake 'Queen' in Four Languages|first=R.M.

| After a period of inactivity and further media reports about the casting of the lead actress, Thiagarajan revealed in February 2016 that he had signed on [[Revathi]] to direct the Tamil version of the film, while [[Suhasini Maniratnam|Suhasini]] would work as the dialogue writer.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/revathy-to-direct-tamil-telugu-remake-of-queen/article8182557.ece|title=Revathy to direct Tamil, Telugu remake of 'Queen'|first=|last=Ians|date=2 February 2016|publisher=|via=www.thehindu.com}}</ref> Soon after, [[Nayanthara]] turned down the opportunity to work on the film citing scheduling issues during early 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/nayanthara-is-not-a-part-of-queen-remake-news-tamil-qdrkrocjcfgfb.html|title=Nayanthara is not a part of 'Queen' remake|publisher=}}</ref> In mid-2016, [[Trisha (actress)|Trisha]] was also approached to play the lead role but conflicting schedules meant that she could not sign on to appear in the film.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/trisha-approached-for-queen-remake-news-tamil-qg3o75eghcdid.html|title=Trisha approached for 'Queen' remake|publisher=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/regional/trisha-nan-still-front-runner-for-queen-tamil-remake-2883782/|title=Trisha Krishnan still front-runner for Queen Tamil remake|date=29 June 2016|publisher=}}</ref> The media also linked actresses [[Parvathy Thiruvothu|Parvathy]] and [[Nithya Menen]] to the lead role, but neither were signed on.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news/Nithya-Menen-in-Queen-remake/articleshow/46594619.cms|title=Nithya Menen in Queen remake? – Times of India|publisher=}}</ref> During an interaction with the media in November 2016, Thiagarajan revealed that he had finalised Revathi to direct the Tamil and Malayalam versions of the film, while Anish Kuruvilla and [[Prakash Raj]] would make the Telugu and Kannada versions respectively.

| In June 2017, further confusion about the remake arose after two separate production houses apart from Thiagarajan's Staar Movies had claimed rights to the film. As per a contract signed on 30 July 2016, Staar Movies agreed to enter into a co-production agreement with Mediente International Films Ltd and Liger Commercial Brokers for the making of the films. However a mutual cancellation form was then signed between the parties on 5 April 2017 after Mediente allegedly failed to pay the consideration provided under the agreement.<ref name="gc">{{cite web|url=https://silverscreen.in/tamil/features/what-ails-the-queen-remakes/|title=What Ails The 'Queen' Remake?|date=13 June 2017|publisher=}}</ref> Then, as per a contract signed on 21 April 2017, Staar Movies agreed to assign the rights of all four South Indian versions of ''Queen'' to Golden Crab Film Production Ltd. In order to avoid the reversion of rights back to Viacom due to three years of inactivity, Staar Movies and Golden Crab swiftly began shooting the film in Tamil on 17 May 2017 with a series of supporting actors including [[Nassar (actor)|Nassar]] under the title of ''Vaanil Thedi Nindren''.<ref name="gc" /> However, on 3 June 2017, Staar Movies again assigned and transferred the remake rights of the film to Mediente and Liger, with the Kannada version of the film titled ''Butterfly'' featuring Parul Yadav, starting immediately with [[Ramesh Aravind]] taking over as director. A few days of shoot for the film were subsequently held during early June 2017 with Sudha Belawadi and Bhargavi Narayan also featuring in the schedule. Staar Movies then produced a declaration affidavit on 14 June 2017 that any agreement with Golden Crab Films was false.<ref name="gc" /><ref name="newindianexpress.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.newindianexpress.com/entertainment/kannada/2017/jun/04/i-feel-like-a-queen-to-have-my-film-launched-on-my-birthday-1612873.html|title='I feel like a Queen to have my film launched on my birthday'|publisher=}}</ref>

| In late September 2017, Mediente announced that the Tamil version would be made as ''[[Paris Paris]]'' (2018) with [[Kajal Aggarwal]], the Malayalam version would be made as ''[[Zam Zam (film)|Zam Zam]]'' with [[Manjima Mohan]] and the Telugu version would star [[Tamannaah]]. Amy Jackson was initially in talks to play the role Lisa Haydon played in Queen however opted out due to unavailability of dates and creative differences. [[Elli Avram]] was later cast in the role. Writer [[Mamta Sagar]] was signed to help adapt the script and opted to set the film in Gokarna, while music composer [[Amit Trivedi]] was signed to work on the Tamil and Kannada versions.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/tamil/movies/news/amit-trivedi-to-make-his-kollywood-debut-with-queen-remake/articleshow/60807113.cms|title=Amit Trivedi to make his Kollywood debut with Queen remake – Times of India|publisher=}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.indiaglitz.com/butterfly-in-tamil-paris-paris-of-ramesh-aravind-kannada-news-196810|title=Butterfly in Tamil, Paris Paris of Ramesh Aravind – Kannada Movie News – IndiaGlitz.com|publisher=}}</ref>
