Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Pee-wee's Big Holiday (2016)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Pee-wee's Big Adventure director Tim Burton was approached with one of Paul Reubens' Pee-wee scripts and declined, and Reubens also spoke to Johnny Depp about playing Pee-wee Herman, but Depp declined any involvement.
- Digital de-aging was used to give Paul Reubens a more youthful look as Pee-wee Herman, because Reubens felt the character "doesn't work, to me, with age mixed into it"; the cost had been his main worry when first discussing the film with Judd Apatow.
- Pee-wee's Big Holiday began filming on March 16, 2015, but Paul Reubens said the project had been greatly delayed because of script leaks.
