It was shot from April to September 1985 on location in Upper Nyack, Piermont, and Haverstraw, New York, and at Elstree Studios and West Wycombe Park in the United Kingdom. Various other scriptwriters rewrote it and added to it, including Laura Phillips, Lucas, Dennis Lee, and Elaine May-although Jones received the film's sole screenwriting credit. Terry Jones of Monty Python wrote the first draft of the film's script early in 1984, drawing on Froud's sketches for inspiration. The film started as a collaboration between Henson and Froud following their previous collaboration The Dark Crystal (1982). In Labyrinth, Sarah embarks on a quest to reach the center of an enormous, otherworldly maze to rescue her infant half-brother Toby, whom she wished away to Jareth. The film stars Jennifer Connelly as 16-year-old Sarah and David Bowie as Jareth, the Goblin King. Based on conceptual designs by Brian Froud, the film was written by Terry Jones, and many of its characters are played by puppets produced by Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Labyrinth is a 1986 musical fantasy film directed by Jim Henson with George Lucas as executive producer.
