Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Terence Hill was primarily known for spaghetti westerns and slapstick comedies with Bud Spencer; this marked his unexpected pivot to directing family-friendly spiritual fare.
This is actually a remake/continuation of a beloved 1950s-60s film series starring Fernandel; Hill acquired rights after the original director's death, obsessed with the character since childhood.
