Curiosidades

Mr. Billion is a 1977 action comedy/action-adventure film directed by Jonathan Kaplan. It is the Hollywood debut of Terence Hill, and the last film of actor William Redfield, who died before its release.

Production

The film was the idea of Dino de Laurentiis, who wanted to introduce Italian actor Terence Hill, at that time one of the biggest movie stars in Europe, to American audiences. De Laurentiis signed Jonathan Kaplan as director, just coming off the successful White Line Fever.

Kaplan later stated the production was difficult—he wanted to cast Lily Tomlin but Fox insisted on Valerie Perrine. Shooting took place on location in Italy. Although Jackie Gleason had a drinking problem, Kaplan said the highlight of the film was working with the comedian. The director was able to sober Gleason up by performing old routines from The Honeymooners and getting laughs from the crew.
