What's left behind the scenes
- Splash was the first film produced by Touchstone Films, a subsidiary of Walt Disney Studios.
- Daryl Hannah swam so quickly in her mermaid costume that the film crew and support team couldn't always keep up with her. The actress had loved imagining herself as a mermaid from Andersen's fairy tale since childhood and had learned to swim 'like a mermaid' very well, keeping her legs together.
- Actor John Candy initially auditioned for the role of Kornblatt, but the producers persuaded him to play Freddie Bowers.
- According to director Ron Howard, John Candy (1950-1994) was once late to the set and thus delayed filming, which was unusual for him. Candy apologized to Howard at length and eloquently, to which Howard said they could now start shooting. Candy then revealed that he hadn't slept that night and was still drunk, all because he had gone to a bar the day before where he ran into Jack Nicholson, who recognized him and bought him drinks all night. After that, Candy brilliantly performed the scene where he is hit by a ball on the court in one take.
- The mermaid's image is due to Robert Short. Initially, he wanted to give her a tail like a dolphin, but Ron Howard rejected this idea and said something “more tropical” was needed. Eventually, Short came up with a tail resembling that of a koi carp.
- Ariel in Ron Clements and John Musker's animated film “The Little Mermaid” (1989) was originally intended to be blonde, but was made a redhead to distinguish her from Daryl Hannah's character.
- Daryl Hannah's fin weighed almost 16 kg, it took three hours to attach it to the actress, and she had to remain motionless the entire time. She couldn't eat anything during the filming day, lest she feel the need to go to the bathroom.
- An underwater trampoline was used during the filming of Madison's (played by Daryl Hannah) jump out of the water already in mermaid form after meeting Allen (Tom Hanks) on the beach. A stunt double with a mermaid tail stood in for Hannah.
- In the restaurant scene, Daryl Hannah – a vegetarian – refused to eat a real lobster. All the innards had to be removed from the prepared lobsters and the space filled with palm hearts and mashed potatoes. According to Ron Howard, Hannah was very concerned about the lobsters.
- The film was shot in a hurry to get ahead of another film with the same title, in which Warren Beatty was supposed to star and for which Robert Towne had written the screenplay. Production of that film was initially delayed due to fears that Hollywood actors would go on strike, and then the project was shut down altogether.
- The actress who played young Madison never wore a mermaid tail, and a prop tail for the young mermaid wasn't even made. The tail seen splashing in the water was actually adult Madison's fins, attached to a stick and with the tips cut off.
- When Disney launched the streaming service Disney+, the scene in which Madison kisses Allen and runs into the water had to be edited and Madison’s hair lengthened to cover her exposed buttocks.
- According to director Ron Howard, John Candy once arrived late to the set, delaying filming, which was unusual for him. Candy apologized profusely and eloquently to Howard, to which Howard replied that they could now begin shooting. Candy then revealed that he hadn't slept that night and was still drunk because he had gone to a bar the day before and run into Jack Nicholson, who recognized him and bought him drinks all night. After that, Candy brilliantly performed the scene on the first take, where he is hit by a ball on the court.

- In the restaurant scene, Daryl Hannah – a vegetarian – refused to eat real lobster. All the insides had to be removed from the prepared lobsters and the space filled with palm hearts and mashed potatoes. According to Ron Howard, Hannah was very concerned about the lobsters.
