Production
Rumors about a possible Rickey the Wicked film started since the beginning of the series. Creator Brad Bird wrote a treatment for a Rickey feature film midway through the series' fifth season production in late 1994. It was to center on a dilemma for Rickey, but it was never pitched. However, in 1998, Bird and the rest of the animation team began working on a feature-length film based on Rickey by putting their finances into Script Development. In September 1999, Warner Bros. officially announced that Rickey the Wicked was to star in his own feature film.

Release
Rickey the Wicked Witch of the City was originally set to be released as a direct-to-video film in Fall 2002, but in February 2001, Warner Bros. announced that the film would be released theatrically.
