An American Werewolf in Paris

Tom Everett Scott had never been to Europe, stating: "I hadn't left the country. So it was a really big, brand new experience for me, and I got to work with all these great special effects people and we got to climb all over the Eiffel Tower at night. They would shut it down from midnight to 6 a.m. for our production. I don't know how many people get the opportunity to do that but that was a real thrill. We got to run around Paris in the middle of the night, and as a 26-year-old guy who had never been to Europe, I was just fascinated and felt very fortunate."

When Serafine transforms into a werewolf, her knees fold backwards to become the werewolf's hocks (the equivalent to the human ankle) and her upper leg bones bend forwards to become the werewolf's stifles (the equivalent to the human knee). However, humans and wolves have very similar leg structure, so there was no need for any of her joints to change, and she could have become a werewolf with just a lengthening of the bones from her ankles downwards. As it is, she will now have an extra joint in each leg.

When first released on DVD in Australia, the film featured the werewolf baby ending. Subsequent Australian DVD releases feature the more widely seen Statue of Liberty ending.
