- Mike Myers is initially said to have been offered the role; later discussion explicitly qualifies the conflicting reports.
- Steven Soderbergh reportedly tried to develop the remake before leaving for Out of Sight.
- Spielberg reportedly considered directing and producing with Jim Carrey and possibly Al Pacino.
- Carrey remained involved after Spielberg departed and contributed ideas before leaving; reports of a Mike Myers offer are explicitly uncertain.
- Stiller is judged better for awkward dinner-table humor than the more physical version imagined for Carrey.
- Naomi Watts reportedly initially had Pam’s role and said producers replaced her because they did not find her sexy enough; that explanation is met with disbelief.
- Christopher Walken reportedly was the backup if De Niro declined, inviting a Wedding Crashers comparison.
