Diana Ross was the original intended star. According to a Barbra Streisand biography, Ross left the project after her brief affair with Ryan O'Neal turned sour.
Reportedly, the film's stars Ryan O'Neal and Barbra Streisand once had a personal relationship prior to making this movie.
Barbra Streisand's music on the soundtrack represented the music performer's first recordings into the genre of disco music.
Barbra Streisand reportedly directed at least one scene in this movie herself (the sequence with both leads fishing and walking in the snow) after director Howard Zieff vetoed them.
Producer Jon Peters, who was Barbra Streisand's boyfriend at the time, has since said, "I talked Barbra into doing that ("The Main Event"). It was time for us to do another film and I felt a comedy was the best way to go."
