June 19, 1963 –
Columbia Pictures releases the Ray Harryhausen fantasy film Jason and the Argonauts, directed by Don Chaffey in the U.S. on this date.
In order to capitalize on the success of The 7th Voyage of Sinbad, Ray Harryhausen originally conceived of the film as Sinbad in the Age of Muses. The story would still have been set in ancient Greece and would have involved Sinbad joining Jason in the search for the Golden Fleece.
