Short description
Joan Wilder is thrust back into a world of murder, chases, foreign intrigue... and love. This time out she's duped by a duplicitous Arab dignitary who brings her to the Middle East, ostensibly to write a book about his life. Of course, he's up to no good, and Joan is just another pawn in his wicked game. But Jack Colton and his sidekick Ralph show up to help our intrepid heroine save the day.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner reluctantly agreed to participate in the sequel. At the pre-production stage, the actress even tried to withdraw from the project, but due to the threat of a lawsuit from the studio and $25 million in financial penalties, she was forced to stay.
  • Two weeks before filming began, production designer Richard Docking and production manager Brian Coates died in a plane crash in Morocco while scouting locations for the film crew.
  • A novelization of the film was released in the United States under the name of Joanne Wilder.
  • Actors Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito appeared in the music video for Billy Ocean’s song “When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going,” which features in the film’s credits. Because the actors were not members of a musicians' union, the video was banned from broadcast in the United Kingdom.
  • The Arabs Arak, Barak, Sarak, Karak, and Taraka were played by members of the American juggling troupe “The Flying Karamazov Brothers.”
  • Kathleen Turner reluctantly participated in the creation of the sequel. During pre-production, the actress even tried to withdraw from the project, but due to the threat of a lawsuit from the studio and $25 million in financial penalties, she was forced to stay.
