Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was filmed during COVID protocols with the Days set standing empty, so actors played multiple roles in the fictional movie-within-a-movie. Eileen Davidson reportedly asked which Kristen she was playing that day.
The 'WilSon' ship (Will and Sonny) represented daytime TV's first gay wedding in 2014; this special exists largely because their fanbase never stopped demanding content after the show moved to streaming. Peacock literally made this for the gays and the gays only.
