[[Mel Brooks]] has adapted the story twice more, as a [[Broadway theatre|Broadway]] musical (''[[The Producers (musical)|The Producers]],'' 2001) and a film based on the musical (''[[The Producers (2005 film)|The Producers]],'' 2005). He did not direct the latter, but served as a producer. Unlike the original film, it was not commercially successful.

This film has spawned several home media releases on VHS, Laserdisc, CED, and VCD from companies such as [[Magnetic Video]], [[Embassy Home Entertainment]], [[PolyGram Video]], Speedy, and Lumiere Video. A 1997 letterbox edition Laserdisc was released by PolyGram Video, which served as the basis for the extremely rare 1998 PolyGram DVD release.

[[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer]], which owns video rights to select Embassy Pictures titles that ended up with Nelson Entertainment and Polygram, released ''The Producers'' on Region 1 DVD in 2002 and reissued in 2005 to coincide with the remake released that year. In 2013, MGM licensed the title to [[Shout! Factory]] to release a DVD and Blu-ray combo pack with a new HD transfer and newly produced bonus materials. StudioCanal, worldwide rights holder to all of the Embassy Pictures library, has also released several R2 DVD editions using a transfer slightly different from the North American DVD and Blu-Ray releases. In 2018, StudioCanal gave the film its European Blu-Ray debut in the UK, Germany, and Australia. The StudioCanal releases included most extras from the Shout! Factory release as well as a new 4K restoration for a 50th anniversary Blu-ray edition.
