Trivia When the "Cheaper by the Dozen" movies were made, neither Steve Martin nor Bonnie Hunt, who played the parents of 12 children, had ever had a child in real life. Steve Martin first became a father years later in Febuary of 2013 when his wife Anne Stringfield gave birth to his first child. See more »
