The film is modeled on the 1870 ballet Coppélia, which itself is loosely based on E. T. A. Hoffmann's story "The Sandman". The ballet—probably acting alongside the version of the same story in Jacques Offenbach's The Tales of Hoffmann—inspired Méliès on numerous occasions, including a stage illusion at his Théâtre Robert-Houdin as well as various others of his films, such as An Up-to-Date Conjuror (1899) and Extraordinary Illusions (1903).[2]
Coppelia, the Animated Doll is currently presumed lost.[1]
