The film is based on the novel 'The Descendants' (2007) by Kaui Hart Hemmings.
The house used for filming the King family had one major drawback – there was no banyan tree near it as described in the book. This problem was solved by transporting and replanting a mature tree that had been dug up with its roots.
The book's author, Kaui Hart Hemmings, appears in a cameo as the secretary to George Clooney's character.
Over three hundred girls auditioned for the role of the younger daughter, ten-year-old Scotty.
Amanda Seyfried auditioned for the role of the older daughter.
In the book, Scotty wears a t-shirt with the inscription "Mrs. Clooney" at one point. As it turned out, George Clooney plays her father in the film.
In one scene during a dialogue, as the camera lingers on Clooney, a friend of his daughter is sitting perfectly straight behind him at three meters. When Clooney gets up from the table and the camera pulls back, the same guy is on a chair to his right shoulder.
Filming began in March 2010 in the state of Hawaii.
The film is based on Kaui Hart Hemmings' novel "The Descendants" (2007).
In the book, Scotty appears at one point wearing a t-shirt that says "Mrs. Clooney." It so happened that in the film, George Clooney plays her father.
