• Initially, Kevin Smith planned to cast Joey Lauren Adams, who starred with Affleck in his film "Chasing Amy", in the role played by Jennifer Lopez.
• Filming was originally scheduled to begin in early April 2002, but was postponed to July of the same year due to Ben Affleck's commitment to "Daredevil". Filming ultimately began on August 9th and ended on November 1st of that year.
• Following the failure of Martin Brest's "Gigli" (2003), Miramax removed all images of Jennifer Lopez from the promotional materials, fearing the public would perceive the film as another project featuring the Ben Affleck – Jennifer Lopez pairing. The film's release date was moved from late 2003 to early 2004. Miramax even attempted to downplay the importance of Lopez's character in the film, preemptively revealing the fate of her character.
