The idea for the movie was inspired by a drawing Tim Burton had done when he was a teenager. The drawing depicted a thin, solemn man with long, sharp blades for fingers. "Since I liked to draw since I was younger, oftentimes images would come up, and they'd stay with you, and you'd keep drawing them. This was a character I sketched a while back," he says. He explains the character represented him as he was in his teenage years and how the film represents much of his time growing up. He likened growing up in Suburbia to a Frankenstein movie with the suburbanites acting as the angry villagers. Burton also stated that he was often alone and had trouble retaining friendships. "I get the feeling people just got this urge to want to leave me alone for some reason, I don't know exactly why."
This is the first time that Tim Burton and Johnny Depp worked together. They became good friends while making the film.
The entire story is meant to be seen through Edward's eyes, which is why the neighborhood looks so "fantastical."
Although Tim Burton said this isn't his greatest film, he said it is his favorite of all his films, and the score is Danny Elfman's favorite of all his soundtrack compositions.
Tim Burton has never intended to make a sequel as he said it would rob the film of its "purity".
"Kim: You're here... They didn't hurt you, did they? [Edward shakes his head] Kim: Were you scared? I tried to make Jim go back, but, you can't make Jim do anything. Thank you for not telling them that we... Edward: You're welcome. Kim: It must have been awful when they told you whose house it was. Edward: I knew it was Jim's house. Kim: You... you did? Edward: Yes. Kim: ...Well, then why'd you do it? Edward: Because you asked me to."
"Kim: Hold me. Edward: I can't."
