What's left behind the scenes
- The original novel of the same name by Louis Sachar, first published in 1998, was awarded the Newbery Medal, the most prestigious American award in children's literature.
- Frankie Muniz was initially invited to play the lead role. Alex D. Linz was also considered for the role.
- The venomous lizards in the film were actually bearded dragons, slightly modified with makeup and computer graphics, and provided by Sandfire Dragon Ranch, a reptile and amphibian breeding facility located in California. Such venomous and deadly lizards do not exist in nature and are a pure invention of the book's author. A total of nine bearded dragons were used for filming, and highly realistic static models were made for some scenes.
- Stanley Yelnats Sr. (the main character’s grandfather) was played by Nathan Davis, the father of director Andrew Davis.
- Sigourney Weaver very much wanted to star in the film because Louis Sachar’s book was then her daughter’s favorite.
- In the guard's house at the camp, you can notice a newspaper clipping framed with the headline “Kate Barlow Robs ‘Chicago Pacific’.” ‘Chicago Pacific’ is a company owned by director Andrew Davis.
- Before starting work on the film, Patricia Arquette couldn’t ride a horse at all and had to learn this not-so-simple skill.
- A local resident in a classroom in one of the scenes is Brian Peck, who was busy working on acting coaching for the young actors involved in the film.
- The author of the book and the final screenplay, American writer Louis Sachar, appears in a cameo with his wife and daughter in the scene where Sam sells onion juice.
- The initial screenplay was written by Richard Kelly, who deviated significantly from the source material, writing a dark, harsh, and even brutal adaptation set in a post-apocalyptic future. The film studio deemed it unsuitable for a children's film and rejected it, favoring the version of the book's author, Louis Sachar.
- The film is dedicated to the memory of actor Scott Plank, who passed away several months after filming ended.
- The onions that Stanley and Zero eat were actually ordinary apples wrapped in an edible shell.
