<P> Ghosts of Girlfriends Past was originally set up at Touchstone Pictures with Ben Affleck attached to play the lead character , but he opted out of the movie . It was primarily filmed at Castle Hill in Ipswich , Massachusetts The film was also the first pairing of Michael Douglas and Anne Archer since the 1987 hit thriller Fatal Attraction , although they shared no scenes together . Jennifer Garner and Christa B. Allen again appear together for the first time since 13 Going on 30 in 2004 , and they again play the older and younger versions of the same character . </P>
