Alternate Ending: As mentioned in the "What Could Have Been" segment in the "Trivia" page, the original ending to this movie had Josh meet a new girl in school named Susan, who was actually the woman Josh met when he was an adult. Since that ending didn't go over so well in America, it was changed to Josh turning back into a child and walking out of Susan's life forever. In Germany and New Zealand, the "Susan follows Josh by becoming a child again" ending has been used.
In the UK, confusingly, both endings have been used.
That is a persistent rumour, but no evidence of the supposed alternate ending (beyond 'I remember it') has ever surfaced, and it's been denied by at least one of the principle cast.
