Did you know

• Sir Michael Palin's gregarious character in this movie was intended to make up for his character in A Fish Called Wanda (1988), who had a severe stutter and could barely speak.

• The theatrical trailer opened with the statement "The following preview has not been tested on animals." The main cast is introduced as "Oscar winner" Kevin Kline; John "Absolutely no chance of an Oscar" Cleese, Jamie Lee "My mom and dad almost got an Oscar" Curtis and Michael "I know someone called Oscar" Palin. The trailer ends with a clip from the deleted ending in which Kline's character Vince McCain is hit in the groin by a charging rhino and sent flying.

• John Cleese promoted this movie as "an equal, not a sequel", to A Fish Called Wanda (1988).
