 Originally this movie was to be made with John Belushi (qv) and  Dan Aykroyd (qv), but after John Belushi (qv) asked his brother  James Belushi (qv), who had starred in the play previously,  James Belushi (qv) said that he didnt want John Belushi (qv) to  take the part because James Belushi (qv) didnt want to be  compared with his brother.
