  • Refitted for Sequel: The makers of the first film had the idea of superimposing Eddie Murphy's face onto Jamal Mixon's body for the dinner scenes, but quickly abandoned the idea after the test shoots produced unsatisfactory results. Here, advances in technology allowed the idea to be re-used in a fashion, namely for when Buddy gets de-aged into a toddler.
