Le fils du masque

Plans for "The Mask II" were in the works years before this film. Nintendo Power magazine held a contest, and first prize was a walk-on role in that movie. The project was canceled, and Nintendo Power's final issue included a public apology to the contest winner. Years later, the winner was revealed as Nathan Ryan Runk, from Arbutus, Maryland. The film was technically on hold, so Runk could have chosen the role or money and merchandise. Runk, who was 12 at the time, chose the money, and received $5,000, a film crew jacket (which he later lost), and several Super Nintendo video games, including "Pilotwings 64" on Nintendo 64. He later claimed it was "absolutely the right call."

In Tim Avery's final confrontation with Loki, he takes off the mask. In the next shot, he isn't holding it.

In non Region 1 DVDs (except the UK DVD), there is an additional scene where green sperm cells fertilize an egg.
