Craig Cox:We shared story credit with Busy Philipps who is a friend of ours. We grew up together in Arizona. She and I were watching a figure skating competition on TV and she was the one that initially said, “Oh, that would be funny, like a story about rival figure skaters.” Then Jeff and I kind of came up with the twist of, “Actually it would be ...
Craig Cox:[Knowing how to skate] wasn’t imperative. This is the first script we wrote together and sold, and we didn’t think about any kind of production concerns or anything like that. They actually had to learn how to do this stuff. Jon Heder broke his ankle early on in the training. It was kind of a scary moment because like, “Oh God, are they e...
Craig Cox: Our vision of Jimmy was that he basically has known nothing but skating his entire life, really has no idea how to interact with people, has had no social life. Jeff Cox: Johnny WeirOpens in a new tab, at least in terms of his style, became sort of an inspiration for Jimmy. Craig Cox: Chazz was the most unrealistic figure skater, but I d...
Jeff Cox:I don’t know who came up with this, but the Iron Lotus move was pretty inspired with the head getting decapitated. Craig Cox: In our original script the second act ended with the two of them being kidnapped by an assassin and taken to this cabin on this mountaintop to get them away from the games. They manage to wriggle out of the ropes an...

Those contextual things make me laugh more than anything. Craig Cox:When we saw that first routine when they skate tog...
Craig Cox:I actually don’t know [how Fergie’s “My Humps” made it into the movie]. Jeff Cox:I don’t know if that was pure Will Ferrell. There needed to be a song, but that was definitely a game-time thing. It wasn’t something that was in our script. Will Ferrell: I do remember Jon was like, “It’s so weird no one knows what it means.” It was all impr...
Craig Cox:No figure skating fan has ever got on us about anything, honestly. That would be amazing to run into someone who really took issue with it, but that’s never happened. Will Ferrell:Not one complaint. I think the world of figure skating was more than happy to have anyone pay attention to them. In fact, I just ran into Dorothy Hamill out in ...
Craig Cox:There were talks up until we were into production of like, “What’s this final moment gonna be? How’s it gonna work?” Then Ben Stiller just had that idea [of taking flight into the sky], I think probably like a day or two before they even filmed it. So that really came out of the moment. Will Ferrell:The thing that I loved that made the mo...
