F.A.Q.
Q:Why did Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear wear real connected clothing in 'Stuck on You'?
A:
Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear actually wore a specially designed, connected harness throughout the filming of 'Stuck on You' to ensure their performances as conjoined twins were authentic. This decision by the Farrelly brothers led to a more realistic portrayal, as the actors had to literally coordinate every move, adding genuine awkwardness and intimacy to their roles.
Q:How did the Farrelly brothers come up with the concept for 'Stuck on You'?
A:
The idea for 'Stuck on You' originated from a joke the Farrelly brothers made during a writers' meeting. They quipped about making a movie about conjoined twins who were polar opposites. The joke stuck, and they developed it into a full screenplay, blending their signature mix of humor with a surprisingly heartfelt exploration of brotherhood.
Q:What really happened when Cher decided to join the cast of 'Stuck on You'?
A:
Cher initially turned down the role in 'Stuck on You' multiple times. She was hesitant about how her character, who plays herself, would be portrayed in a comedy about conjoined twins. It was only after several personal calls and a rewritten script by the Farrelly brothers emphasizing the satirical and self-deprecating aspects of her role that she agreed to join the film.

Trivia
🎬During the filming of 'Stuck on You', the production team used a real diner in Martha's Vineyard for many of the diner scenes. The diner, however, had to close down temporarily for renovations immediately after filming, leading to a local rumor that the movie had bought and closed the diner, which wasn't true.
💡The prosthetic makeup used for the conjoined twins in 'Stuck on You' was designed by three-time Oscar-winning makeup artist Greg Cannom. The design was so convincing that during shoots in public, bystanders often didn't realize Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear weren't actually conjoined, leading to several perplexed and concerned reactions.
🎯Eva Mendes, who played the role of April in 'Stuck on You', admitted in an interview that she took the role because she wanted to break away from the typecast dramatic roles she had been offered. This film marked a significant comedic turn in her career, influencing her subsequent role choices in Hollywood.
