The first draft of the script of "The Boss Moves Away" was written by the screenwriter Kenneth Ronald. The director of Spring Creek Productions, Lan Amatow, first saw the script and recommended the script to the company's founder Paula Weinstein and her. Her husband, Mark Rosenberg, is interested in the story of the film and believes that Billy Christo is the best candidate to play the psychiatrist in the film. The crew invited the screenwriter Peter Tolan, who adapted a script with frequent jokes. Robert De Niro saw the script. He was willing to play Witty, but he was worried. Jane Rosenthal, the producer who formed Tribeca Productions with him, persuaded him. When looking for a film director, the chief creative staff always chose Harold Remis as the first choice. But at that time, Remis had just moved to Chicago with his family, and he was unwilling to pack up and go to New York to spend six months making a movie. A few months later, his agent called to ask him if he would join the movie starring Robert De Niro and Billy Christo, he agreed.

Comedy comes from the high contrast between the characters' occupations and the difficulties they encounter, as well as the conflicting positions of the two characters but unable to get rid of each other's stickiness.
