  • Sofía Vergara's son Manolo plays a DJ in the quinceanera scene.
• Star-Derailing Role: Sofía Vergara had already hit it big with a starring role on Modern Family when she tried to certify herself as a movie star with this film, only for its failure to nip that potential in the bud. She retreated back towards television and kept finding success there after Modern Family concluded its run in 2020. The film's failure also dampened a bit of the hype Reese Witherspoon got, after achieving a Career Resurrection when Wild netted her acclaim and an Academy Award nomination. Luckily, she too kept finding success on television (with Big Little Lies, The Morning Show, and Little Fires Everywhere).
