Executive producer Max Wong told Jesse Bradford back during negotiations that if he agreed to do the movie, he'd give him a convertible. Wong told MTV: "We went back to Jesse and we were like, 'Come on! It's going to be a cheerleading movie. You're going to be in the sun in San Diego with a bunch of girls! What could go wrong?' And he was like, 'Can I get a convertible?' And I was like, 'Of course!' Which was a total lie."
