Screenwriter Paul Rudnick wrote the original script back in 1987 and Bette Midler was supposed to be cast for the role of Deloris. After Midler had left the project, the script underwent several re-writes by screenwriters Carrie Fisher, Eleanor Bergstein, Nancy Meyers, Jim Cash, Jack Epps, Jr., and Robert Harling. As Rudnick did not consider the final draft of the movie as his own work, the pseudonym "Joseph Howard" was chosen by him after his own suggestion for the writer's credit ("Screenplay by Goofy") had been rejected.
