Favreau met Vince Vaughn—who also played a small role in this film—during shooting. The next year, he appeared in the college film PCU alongside Jeremy Piven, and also stepped into the world of television to play a guest role in several episodes of the sitcom Friends as Monica Geller's boyfriend Pete Becker.

He then moved to Los Angeles, where he made his breakthrough in 1996 as an actor-screenwriter with the film Swingers, which was Vaughn's breakthrough role as the glib and over-confident Trent Walker, a perfect foil to Favreau's heartbroken Mike Peters.
