Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Philippe Browning never directed again after this, possibly because he achieved perfection. Paul Alexander Nolan went on to become a Tony-nominated Broadway star—no, really.
This landed in that weird 1999 VHS sweet spot where every studio needed a 'kids with powers' franchise starter, quality be damned. It competed with literal Pokemon for shelf space.
