Trivia

According to DVD commentary for ''Back to the Future'', producer Bob Gale stated that Hardin was cast at one point to play the character of Jennifer Parker. When Michael J. Fox was cast as Eric Stoltz's replacement, Hardin was replaced because producers felt she was too tall while on screen with Fox.
