Production

James Gunn wrote the movie in a span of two to three weeks. He gave the script to his brother Sean who passed it to Jamie Kennedy who shared it with his manager, Peter Safran, who then signed Gunn as a client.

Producer Mark A. Altman described the film as being in the spirit of Clerks or This Is Spinal Tap and looking at the lives of superheroes in a real world setting dealing with petty feuds and feelings of disillusionment in between fighting crime or supervillains.

The film was released on Blu-Ray for its 20th anniversary in 2020.
