CLICK PRODUCTION NOTES
In Columbia Pictures/Revolution Studios’ life-altering comedy Click, Michael Newman (Adam Sandler), a busy architect who is trying to get ahead in the world, purchases a remote control that seems to not only let him control his TV set and stereo, but virtually his entire life. Sounds too good to be true. And it is, because soon the technologically sophisticated device is controlling Michael in ways he never imagined possible.

Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) is married to the beautiful Donna (Kate Beckinsale) and they have two terrific kids, Ben (Joseph Castanon) and Samantha (Tatum McCann). But he doesn’t get to see them much because he’s putting in long, hard hours at his architectural firm in the elusive hope that his ungrateful boss (David Hasselhoff) will one day recognize his invaluable contribution and make him a partner.
Screenwriter and producer Steve Koren recalls how he and his partner Mark O’Keefe came up with the idea for CLICK. “There was a joke between me and my girlfriend,” Koren recalls. “We got into a long argument, so I picked up the remote, pointed it at her and hit the ‘mute’ button. She didn’t find my little wish amusing, but I thought a lot of people could relate.”
