Osmosis Jones suffered through development hell, switching directors from Tom Sito and Piet Kroon to Peter and Bob Farrelly. The film was originally rated PG-13. However, Warner Bros. wanted the film to be more family-friendly oriented, so it was cut down to meet PG standards.[2][3]

  • Drix complaining about his need to go inside of the nose and throat.
  • Frank's nose leaking, while he's picking his nose. Osmosis saves Drix from being on Frank's finger, and they are inhaled into the sinuses.
  • The scene where Osmosis and Drix chase Thrax is extended; Thrax leaps from his car and glides away. Osmosis and Drix take a shortcut to the uvula by riding inside of the esophagus, where they ride over an acid belch.
