Short description
Fifteen directors and an all-star cast created this twisted comedy that follows three teens on the hunt for the world's most banned film.
What's left behind the scenes
- George Clooney turned down a cameo as himself in a scene where he would have been portrayed as clumsily hitting on women.
- The role of the leprechaun could have gone to Colin Farrell.
- George Clooney turned down a cameo role as himself in a scene where he would have been shown awkwardly hitting on women.
- The film was shot over the course of four years due to the actors' tight schedules. The segment with Hugh Jackman and Kate Winslet was filmed first, and producer Charles B. Wessler used it to secure funding for the entire project. He went to great lengths to cast famous actors in the shorts, and most agreed to spend a few days filming. Almost none of the actors knew what the other segments were about or what the movie was overall. When the film was released, none of the famous actors wanted to advertise or promote it.
- Work on the film began under the direction of Overture Films. Later, Relativity Media took over the film, and a few months after that, Relativity Media bought Overture Films.
- Trey Parker and Matt Stone were considered for directing the film but declined.
- The credits state that Bob Odenkirk directed two segments, but these scenes are not present in the American release.
- The film did not have a preview screening for film critics.
- Colin Farrell could have played the role of the leprechaun.
- Trey Parker and Matt Stone could have been involved in directing the film, but they declined.
- Anton Yelchin was originally in an episode directed by Bob Odenkirk. He played the role of a necrophile. But after extremely negative feedback at a test screening, Yelchin left the project.
