• Playing Against Type: A directing example. At the time the Farrelly Brothers were most known for wacky comedies with heavy emphasis on gross out humour. While Stuck On You has a few sillier moments, it’s a more grounded Dramedy and it’s emotional moments are treated with complete sincerity.
• Romance on the Set: Matt Damon met his future wife Luciana Barroso when the cast and crew dragged him out one night to a bar which happened to be where his future wife was the bartender.
• Throw It In!: Ray "Rocket" Valliere's speech following the credits was not planned. He rambled on while the cameras kept rolling. Lunch had already been called and the crew was restless. But his speech was so heartfelt that no one stopped him.
• What Could Have Been: The film was originally going to star Jim Carrey and Woody Allen.
