Last movie appearance of Gigi Reder (Renzo Filini).
Differently by the other movies of the series, Mariangela and Uga Fantozzi are no more played by Plinio Fernando but by Maria Cristina Maccà. It's the first and only time that the role of Mariangela is played by a female actress. While Mariangela doesn't appear in the final movie of the series Fantozzi 2000 - La clonazione (1999), Uga appears again but played by Dodi Conti.
A scene where some young guys throw stones from a motorway overpass was sharply criticized. In particular in Italy, at those time the one of stones thrown from overpasses was unfortunately a recurring occurrence. On December 27, 1996 a young bride from Civitanova Marche died in similar circumstances: therefore the scene was deleted from the screening in the largest cinema of the victim's town.
Last movie of the series directed by Neri Parenti, who took over direction by Luciano Salce starting with Fantozzi contro tutti (1980). The final chapter Fantozzi 2000 - La clonazione (1999) was directed by Domenico Saverni with a mostly different crew.
The company "Megaditta" is here set again in the agency of customs and monopolies in Rome, like in the previous Fantozzi in Paradiso (1993). It's the only location used for more than one single movie of the series for setting the company. Paolo Paoloni reprises his role as Galactic Megadirector Duke-Count Balabam after Fantozzi (1975), Il secondo tragico Fantozzi (1976) and Fantozzi in Paradiso (1993): in the latter his surname was changed in Barambani.
