John Candy also starred in the film. Howard recalled one particularly funny story about the actor and his eventful run-in with Jack Nicholson.
"John, totally professional guy, but he's late one day," Howard began. "And he finally pulls up and rolls out of the car and he says, 'Ron, I'm so sorry.' I said, 'It's OK. You're late, but we'll get going.' He said, 'No, no, no. Look, I'm drunk. Here's what happened, I'm telling you the truth: I'm at the bar and Jack Nicholson is at the bar. Jack Nicholson knew my name, Ron! And he starts buying me drinks.
The scene Candy was too drunk to shoot was the racquetball court segment, Howard said. But when he was finally able, Hanks noted, Candy was able to hit himself in the face with the ball perfectly on the first take.
