William Goldman originally wrote several drafts of the screenplay, all of which were rejected, as he wrote it as a simple comedy, and the producers preferred to use the film to "explore the loneliness of invisibility". Eventually, he left the project, though he still receives a screenplay credit. He claims never to have seen the movie, and thus cannot say for sure how much of his material is actually in the film.

The picture was not the first invisible man comedy. Disney's 1972 film Now You See Him, Now You Don't (1972) and 1951's Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man (1951) preceded it.

David Jenkins: Perhaps a small reminder of the state of things is in order. I'm the one who kills people, Warren, not you. And if you screw up with me, I will cut off your testicles, I will lightly fry them, and Morrissey here...
