In late 2014, Netflix announced that they would shoot and air this miniseries continuation of the eponymous 2001 movie featuring nearly all of the same actors and actresses. However, instead of being a sequel, the new miniseries would be a prequel, with the actors and actresses (most of whom were already up to a decade too old to play their teenage characters back in 2001) playing even younger versions of the same characters they portrayed in the first movie.
In reprising his role as Ben, Bradley Cooper shot all his scenes in one day. Initially, Cooper wasn't able to fly to the set in Los Angeles due to commitments with a Broadway play. The filmmakers opted to shoot his scenes in New York City until Cooper was nominated at the 87th Annual Academy Awards, prompting him to travel to Los Angeles. The plan was revamped to shoot Cooper's scenes in a single day, which was the last day of the show's production, on February 26, 2015.
The series is the long-awaited prequel to Director David Wain's cult hit Wet Hot American Summer (2001), which failed at the box-office upon release in 2001. Wain had been attempting to follow up the film with a television sequel for years, before finally reaching a deal with Netflix in 2014, shortly after the streaming service's success with the fourth season of Arrested Development (2003).
The Rockin' Knights of Summer was the name of a band that David Wain put together in 1989. They performed at various summer camps across New England, playing cover songs in exchange for three hundred dollars, breakfast and dinner, and a place to sleep (though this most often was a spot on the floor somewhere).
In the original movie, Beth made a reference to Jim Stansel ("that guy"). Jim Stansel appeared in the miniseries as a lawyer.
