Twice the fun, twice the trouble

En enero de 1986, a bordo del transatlántico RE2, Nicholas Parker, un joven estadounidense que aspira a triunfar como viticultor, y Elizabeth James, una británica que sueña con ser la mejor diseñadora de modas, se casan en plena travesía. La boda es el punto de partida de la historia, y los fragmentos iniciales muestran la ceremonia y la ilusión de la pareja por el futuro que tienen por delante. Cuando una fotógrafa les pide un retrato, los recién casados se miran con complicidad, en una escena que deja clara la relación entre ambos y el tono con el que arranca la película.

Trivia about The Parent Trap

Para que Lindsay Lohan interpretara a las dos gemelas, el rodaje usó fotografía de control de movimiento, y Erin Mackey fue contratada como doble de la actriz.
Más de 1.500 jóvenes actrices enviaron cintas de audición para los papeles dobles de Hallie y Annie, y Jena Malone rechazó el papel en varias ocasiones.
En febrero de 2018, The Hollywood Reporter informó de que se estudiaban reinicios de varios títulos para Disney+, y The Parent Trap era uno de los proyectos mencionados.
En 2020, un encuentro virtual del reparto, moderado por Katie Couric, sirvió para recaudar fondos durante la pandemia para la ONG World Central Kitchen de José Andrés.
