1. Although everyone remembers Johnny Deep playing this character in an iconic way, the role almost went to other actors, Tom Cruise and Jim Carrey. The protagonist finally accepted this role, with the condition that he could improvise in some scenes.

2. The scissors were not fake; they were all made of steel, so each one weighed 5 kilos, and they were designed by the sculptor Stan Winston from a mold of Jhonny’s hand.

3. The character of ‘the inventor‘ was created from the beginning, thinking about Vincent Price, who had a little more prominence; however, he was ill, and the director reduced his lines. Then, the actor died in 1993; this was his last film.
