Frank Sinatra was interested in the role of The Pilot and had the producers of the film behind him, but Director Stanley Donen vetoed his casting.

The dance routine of Bob Fosse is said to be one of Michael Jackson's inspirations.

"[the pilot has drawn him a picture] The Little Prince: Oh no, I don't want an elephant inside a boa constrictor. Boa constrictors are dangerous and an elephant is very cumbersome. Where I come from, everything is very small. Will you draw me a sheep?"
