Principal photography began on October 1, 2012, in New Orleans, continuing for 25 days of filming, which also included shooting in Baton Rouge. Brenner selected the first draft, written by Borten and Wallack, for the film, and then Vallée was set to direct the film. In 2009, producer Brenner involved Matthew McConaughey, because of his Texas origins, the same as Woodroof's. A couple of screenwriters wrote drafts that were rejected.

Universal Pictures also tried to make the film, but did not.

Several other actors, directors, and producers who were attached at various times to the development of the film left the project. Screenwriter Borten interviewed Woodroof in 1992 and wrote the script, which he polished with writer Wallack in 2000, and then sold to producer Robbie Brenner. The article, which featured interviews with Woodroof and also recreated his dramatic international exploits, attracted widespread attention from filmmakers and journalists. Presidential biographer and PEN-USA winner Bill Minutaglio wrote the first magazine profile of the Dallas Buyers Club in 1992. Eve Saks ( Jennifer Garner), and Rayon ( Jared Leto), were composite roles created from interviews with transgender AIDS patients, activists, and doctors. As part of the experimental AIDS treatment movement, he smuggled unapproved pharmaceutical drugs into Texas for treating his symptoms, and distributed them to fellow people with AIDS by establishing the "Dallas Buyers Club" while facing opposition from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The film tells the story of Ron Woodroof ( Matthew McConaughey), an AIDS patient diagnosed in the mid-1980s when HIV/AIDS treatments were under-researched, while the disease was not understood and highly stigmatized.

It ended up a very boring walk through the place since there was so many going through at the same time that you really didn't get the fun experience.Dallas Buyers Club is a 2013 American biographical drama film written by Craig Borten and Melisa Wallack, and directed by Jean-Marc Vallée. We caught up to another group of 4 people because they had to stop because another huge group of people were in front of them and the people behind us caught up pretty quickly then another huge group of people were behind them. They don't allow enough time in between groups of people to be able to have some room to walk through freely. The place got boring really quick and I ended up looking at the exhibits and laughing at them instead of being scared. I was under the impression that it I brought a "Skip the Line" ticket that we would be able to walk through the facility ourselves but we ended up being in a group of people that really killed the fun. The place relies on mostly robotics to stand in for the actors and there was a lot of missed opportunities to scare the audience. This place did not live up to the advertising and I was extremely disappointed in the haunted house.
