[[Monty Python]] manager and producer [[Denis O'Brien (producer)|Denis O'Brien]] had difficulty understanding the concept of ''Brazil'', so Gilliam decided on the idea of a family film. O'Brien had set up [[HandMade Films]] in London for the former [[The Beatles|Beatle]] [[George Harrison]] to produce ''[[Monty Python's Life of Brian|Life of Brian]]'' and the initiative was to produce more films with Python talent. When Gilliam's pitch was accepted he co-wrote the script with fellow Python [[Michael Palin]].<ref name="gizmodo">{{cite web |last=Sellers |first=Robert |title=It's a miracle that Terry Gilliam's Time Bandits even got made |url=https://gizmodo.com/its-a-miracle-that-terry-gilliams-time-bandits-even-g-1332560707 |website=Gizmodo |language=en-us |date=17 September 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite AV media |title='Terry Gilliam: Career in 40 Minutes' |url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=boxxgJIwbtc&feature=youtu.be |date=14 March 2014 |publisher=Total Film |via=[[YouTube]]}}</ref>
