** Creator/DreamWorksAnimation and composer Music/HansZimmer (who heads [=DreamWorks=] Music) forced director Creator/NickPark to drop an already-recorded musical score by ''WesternAnimation/WallaceAndGromit'' composer Julian Nott because Zimmer decided to have John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams write the music together. It was meddling like this which resulted in Aardman and [=DreamWorks=] eventually breaking off their five-picture deal after only three films.

** Creator/DavidBradley voices Fowler instead of Benjamin Whitrow, who died in 2017.
