Trivia

The first of M. Night's film that doesn't have a twist.

The plot of the movie is based on a bedtime story M. Night Shyamalan wrote for his kids.
Some of this film was shot in Levittown, Pennsylvania at a Jacobson logistics warehouse site. (Shyamalan has committed to using films sites in PA.) The set, built on the warehouse site, includes an apartment complex and a half city block of row houses. Occasional footage was shot inside the overflow area of the warehouse. Most of the filming was completed after Jacobson work hours.
This movie was originally set up at Disney, but Shyamalan departed from the studio over "creative differences", and brought it to Warner Brothers. Disney has produced Shyamalan's previous four films, and the studio's subsidiary Miramax Films also produced Wide Awake
which Shyamalan wrote and directed.
A 72 paged English hardcover book version will be published, by M. Night Shyamalan, with pictures by Crash McCreery. The publisher is Little, Brown (June 21, 2006) and its ISBN is 0316017345.
