Shallow Hal is a 2001 American romantic comedy film directed by the Farrelly Brothers. The film stars Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Black, with Jason Alexander, Joe Viterelli, and Susan Ward in supporting roles. Filming took place in various areas including Charlotte, North Carolina, and Sterling and Princeton, Massachusetts at Wachusett Mountain. The plot centers around a womanizer who, while under a hypnotic guise to only see a person's inner beauty, falls in love with a 300-pound woman. Production for the film was moved ahead to be completed before July 2000, mainly to avoid conflicts with a threatened writer's strike from the Writers Guild of America. The Farrellys initially sought Garry Shandling to play the role of Mauricio in the film, but were unsuccessful and Alexander was cast in the role instead.
