According to an interview with John Goodman in the article "'No Leading Man, King Ralph Insists" published in the February 12, 1991 edition of the Los Angeles Times, Goodman denied his new leading man status in this movie, and said he was still just a character actor. Goodman said: "Don't call me a leading man. This is just another part, with a lot more lines. The only difference for me this time, was that I didn't have time to fool around when I wasn't working. When you're the leading man, your meter's running all the time, and you're always working. There's no goof-off time. But that still doesn't make me a leading man. I'm still just a character actor. Nobody's ready to call me Mel Gibson, Jr., and I don't think anybody's ready to pay good money to see me get the girl in the movie. I know I wouldn't go see something like that."
The script was originally written with Bill Murray in mind.
John Goodman does his own singing.
During this movie, King Ralph (John Goodman) and Miranda (Camille Coduri) go to a Burger King, where Ralph fails to get a Whopper. One of John Goodman's first acting jobs was in a commercial for Burger King, where he happily consumes a Whopper.
First top-billed starring role of John Goodman. On movie posters, the part was also Goodman's first sole name-above-the-title billing.
"Phipps: Sir Cedric! Sir Cedric! Good news. We've finally found an heir! Sir Cedric Willingham: That's wonderful, Duncan. Who is he? Phipps: His name is Jones. Ralph Jones. Sir Cedric Willingham: Is he everything we've hoped for? Phipps: [embarrassed] Well. He has his strengths and his weaknesses. You see, he's [uncomfortable pause] Phipps: American. Sir Cedric Willingham: Quickly, Duncan! The strengths!"
"Sir Cedric Willingham: It's I who should be thanking you. You showed me how to be a king. Ralph Jones: Me? I was a lousy king. Sir Cedric Willingham: On the contrary. You are a good and decent man, and you've acted honorably. I shall try to follow your example. Ralph Jones: Thank you, Ced."
