Meet the Parents Trivia

  • According to the DVD commentary, the car chase scene was originally meant to be a spoof of Ronin. When the filmmakers go to the location, they saw how quickly the lights changed, realized it would be a funnier joke, and rewrote the scene - the lights really do change from green to red as fast as they are shown in the movie.
  • At one time Jim Carrey was slated to star as the lead and even contributed jokes to the screenplay, such as the main character being named 'Focker'.
  • The home video footage of Teri Polo during the opening credits was filmed by her ex-husband Anthony Moore.
