Trivia

Gary Winick likened the scene between Jenna and Mark in Central Park to the balcony scene from Romeo & Juliet. Winick later payed homage to the play even further (with an actual balcony scene) in his final film Letters to Juliet (2010).

When Jenna wakes up and she is 30, she is terribly lost in her apartment. In order to know where she is, she quickly takes a look at some mail she received. One of the envelopes shows that the letter was sent by Sparkle. This will have great significance later in the movie.

In Australia, the title was changed to "Suddenly 30" because distributors thought audiences would misunderstand the original title.
