Manusforfatteren [[Anthony McCarten]] hadde vært interessert i Hawking siden han leste boken ''[[A Brief History of Time]]'' i 1988. I 2004 leste han Jane Hawkings ''Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen'', og begynte å skrive et manus basert på boken, uten å ha noen form for garanti at det ville bli noe av det. Han besøkte Jane flere ganger for å diskutere prosjektet. I 2009, etter flere utkast, ble han introdusert til produsenten Lisa Bruce gjennom ICM-agenten Craig Bernstein.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Levy|first=Emmanuel|title=Theory of Everything: Making Movie about Stephen Hawkings|url=http://emanuellevy.com/pick-of-the-week/theory-of-everything-making-the-movie-about-stephen-hawkings|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=Emmanuel Levy|date=5. september 2014}}</ref>

Bruce brukte tre år med McCarten for å overbevise Jane Hawking om å gå med på lage en film av boken, Bruce sa "It was a lot of conversation, many glasses of sherry, and many pots of tea."<ref>{{Cite news|title=Toronto: THR Honors 'Theory of Everything' Stars and Director With Breakthrough in Film Awards|url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/toronto-thr-honors-theory-everything-730776|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Hollywood Reporter]]|date=7. september 2014}}</ref> Den 18. april 2013 ble det bekreftet at [[James Marsh]] skulle regissere filmen, som ville bli basert i Cambridge og andre steder i Storbritannia, med [[Eddie Redmayne]] i den mannlige hovedrollen.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Child|first=Ben|title=Eddie Redmayne set to play Stephen Hawking in biopic|url=http://www.theguardian.com/film/2013/jun/13/eddie-redmayne-stephen-hawking-theory-of-everything|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[The Guardian]]|date=18. april 2013}}</ref> Den 23. juni 2013 ble det annonsert at [[Felicity Jones]] ville inneha den kvinnelige hovedrollen.<ref>{{Cite news|last=White|first=James|title=Felicity Jones Joins Theory Of Everything|url=http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=37894|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Empire Magazine]]|date=23. juni 2013}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Armitage|first=Hugh|title=Felicity Jones cast in Stephen Hawking biopic 'Theory of Everything'|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/news/a492578/felicity-jones-cast-in-stephen-hawking-biopic-theory-of-everything.html#~oNtbX5UTI1Rxmd|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Digital Spy]]|date=24. juni 2013}}</ref> Den 8. oktober 2013 ble det bekreftet at [[Emily Watson]] og [[David Thewlis]] skulle være medvirkende,<ref>{{Cite news|last=Bullock|first=Dan|title=Emily Watson Joins Working Title’s ‘Theory of Everything’|url=http://variety.com/2013/film/news/emily-watson-joins-working-titles-theory-of-everything-1200705092/|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=8. oktober 2013}}</ref> og at [[Tim Bevan]], [[Eric Fellner]], Lisa Bruce, og [[Anthony McCarten]] fra Working Title skulle produsere stykket.<ref name="Child">{{Cite news|last=Child|first=Ben|title=Eddie Redmayne, Felicity Jones Line Up For James Marsh's 'The Theory of Everything'|url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/eddie-redmayne-felicity-jones-line-644957|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[The Hollywood Reporter]]|date=8. oktober 2013}}</ref>

Marsh hadde studert arkivbilder for å gjøre filmen mer autentisk, og sa "When we had photographs and documentary footage of Stephen that related to our story, we tried to reproduce them as best we could." <ref name="insidemovies.ew.com">{{Cite news|title=Eddie Redmayne on playing (and meeting) Stephen Hawking|url=http://insidemovies.ew.com/2014/08/18/the-theory-of-everything-eddie-redmayne-talks-playing-and-meeting-stephen-hawking/|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Entertainment Weekly]]|date=18. august 2014}}</ref> Redmayne møtte [[Stephen Hawking]] selv, og kommenterte at "Even now, when he's unable to move, you can still see such effervescence in his eyes." Han beskrev det å portrettere Hawking i filmen som en heftig utfordring, og sa at "The real problem with making a film is of course you don’t shoot chronologically. So it was about having to really try and chart his physical deterioration [so] you can jump into it day-to-day, whilst at the same time keeping this spark and wit and humour that he has."<ref name="insidemovies.ew.com" />

Redmayne brukte et halvt år på å studere Hawking's liv, hvor han blant annet så på alt intervjumateriale han kunne finne.<ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite news|title=Toronto: ‘The Theory of Everything’ Made Stephen Hawking Cry|url=http://variety.com/2014/film/news/toronto-the-theory-of-everything-made-stephen-hawking-cry-1201300436/|accessdate=18. februar 2015|newspaper=[[Variety]]|date=7. september 2014}}</ref> Mars uttalte at det Redmayne måtte gjøre ikke var særlig enkelt. "He had to take on enormous amounts of difficult preparation as well as embracing the difficult physicality of the role. It's not just doing a disability. It's actually charting the course of an illness that erodes the body, and the mind has to project out from that erosion," sa han. Han la til at Hawking hadde vært i støtte for filmen, og at "[Hawking's] response was very positive, so much so that he offered to lend his voice, the real voice that he uses. The voice you hear in the latter part of the story is in fact Stephen's actual electronic voice as he uses it".<ref name="deadline.com" />

Under [[BBC Radio 4]]s ''[[Woman's Hour]]'' pratet Jane Hawking om å ha møtt Jones flere ganger mens hun forberedte seg for rollen. Da hun endelig fikk sett den ferdige filmen ble hun overrasket av å se at Jones hadde inkorporert Jane's talemåte i fremstillingen.
