Shadow of the Eagle is a 1950 British-Italian historical drama film directed by Sidney Salkow and starring Richard Greene, Valentina Cortese and Greta Gynt. A separate Italian version The Rival of the Empress was released the following year.
It was shot partly at Teddington Studios and partly on location in Italy. The film's art direction was by Wilfred Shingleton.
It was produced by Tony Havelock Allen who made it through his new company, Constellation Films. He said the movie "looked nice, had beautiful sets, but again I wasn’t pleased with it."
