Michael Bay recalls getting the project working under Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer. Coming off of a music video career, the director sold the producers on his ability to sell the filn to a much younger audience than the older, English director they were considering. Originally cast were Jon Lovitz as Marcus Burnett and Dana Carvey as Mike Lowery. According to Bay, Lovitz credits not doing the film for his career. The movie fell apart after an initial test-shooting, Bay's way of showing the producers, then Jeffrey Katzenberg, what his vision for the film was, and Carvey leaving the project. Bay went back to directing music videos, and Simpson and Bruckheimer continued working to get the project off the ground.
