Originally Chevy Chase was lined up to play Otter, (the role that was eventually played by Tim Matheson). While the studio wanted Chase who was a big star at the time; John Landis did not . Landis did not want this to be another SNL movie. He deliberately dissuaded Chase; who usually likes to be the big star of the movie; by pitching the movie as an excellent "ensemble piece"; where he would be one player among many featured; as opposed to the star. This turned Chase off and he quit the movie.
