Trivia

The film was originally going to be adapted by Universal Pictures and directed by Kenny Ortega for a summer 2011 release. Universal opted not to produce the film, and it was later picked up by The Weinstein Company with Jon M. Chu directing. In the aftermath of the Weinstein scandal, Harvey's name was removed but Chu remained on board.
