The movie came about because the directors met Zack Gottsagen at a camp for disabled and non-disabled people and he expressed his desire to be a movie star. So the directors wrote the script around him and Zack's hopes and dreams that bled into the script and people they knew who would allow them to film for free and without permits.
Zack Gottsagen ad-libbed the answer "party" when he was asked for the first time by Tyler what rule number one is.
On July 30, 2019, the Ruderman Family Foundation honored this movie with its Seal of Authentic Representation for accurate depictions of people with disabilities.
It became a sleeper hit, becoming the highest grossing independent film of 2019.
According to an interview Shia LaBeouf did with Collider, Ben Foster was originally cast as Tyler but dropped out last minute to spend time with his pregnant wife, actress Laura Prepon, and their child. Foster then called LaBeouf and offered him the role and to take his place in the movie.
"Tyler: What's rule number one? Zak: Party."
"Zak: You are not invited to my birthday party!"
