Trivia
The script was developed at the same time with 'E.T, the extraterrestrial' for Columbia, but they decided to carry out 'Starman'. The other script was brought to the big screen by the competitor, Universal, becoming an international success.
According to John Carpenter in the audio commentary on Big Trouble in little China (1986), the main reason for which he directed 'Starman' was that after the box-office disaster of The Thing (1982), he needed to make a movie that was the complete opposite of what 'The Thing' was so he could continue to work in Hollywood.
Kevin Bacon was selected to the role and Tom Cruise was selected too. Finally the main character was Jeff Bridges
