This question was previously asked in
SSC Selection Post 2025 Graduate Level Question Paper (29-Aug-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

The script revisions were supposed to have been finalized by the director before principal photography commenced.

The active sentence uses the perfect infinitive: 'was supposed to have finalized'. Its object is 'the script revisions'.

In the passive, the object 'the script revisions' becomes the subject; with a plural subject 'was supposed' becomes 'were supposed'.

The perfect infinitive 'to have + past participle' becomes the passive perfect infinitive 'to have been + past participle': 'to have been finalized', followed by 'by the director'.

The time clause 'before principal photography commenced' stays unchanged.

Passive: The script revisions were supposed to have been finalized by the director before principal photography commenced.

Hence, the answer is The script revisions were supposed to have been finalized by the director before principal photography commenced.
