ā¢ This movie was originally titled "Slammer" until Madonna wrote "Who's That Girl" and decided to use it as the theme song. The song went to #1 on the Billboard chart in August 1987.
ā¢ Originally, Sean Penn was set to co-star with Madonna. After Shanghai Surprise (1986) flopped, the producers opted to go with Griffin Dunne, fresh from his success with After Hours (1985).
ā¢ During the development of the opening titles, Madonna asked Director James Foley if they could have a cartoon figure of her character introducing the credits. Foley liked the idea, and Warner enlisted cartoonist April March to create the cartoon.
