Kangaroo Jack was a buddy comedy film originally released on January 17th, 2003, in the United States. However, there is a significant difference between the cut that was released and some of the content that was originally filmed for the movie.
Early in production, the film was intended to be a mob comedy called Down and Under with an R rating planned filled with swearing and nudity.[1]After a poor test screening, producer Jerry Bruckheimer increased screentime of the kangaroo, toned down the adult content and replaced the animatronic kangaroo with a computer generated kangaroo as well as marketing the film like a talking animal kids film ala Snow Dogs.[2]
The audio commentary by the cast and crew revealed that the cut would have had a scene where Jessie (Estella Warren) gives Charlie his Captain Amazing pin back.
While the original cut may still exist somewhere, no footage has ever been released from it.
