What's left behind the scenes
- Filming of the movie began on March 13, 2003, in Thailand. In mid-April, filming moved to Berlin (Babelsberg Studios), where it continued for the next three months until the end of June of the same year. Post-production lasted until February 2004.
- Filming was originally scheduled to take place in Prague, but due to local floods, this option had to be abandoned.
- The first planned start date for filming was November 2002.
- Before the confrontation near the Statue of Liberty, the heroes notice it but have no idea what it is, and Monique says it's a “French woman.” In reality, the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France to America.
- Sylvester Stallone made a small appearance in the film. According to the script, the film's heroes lacked money for a steamship back from the USA, and Passepartout had to fight a boxer in the ring to win the match and receive money as a reward. Stallone played the Irish boxer. However, all scenes with him were cut during final editing.
- The initial version of the film lasted approximately 3 hours.
- The original version of the film included a battle with a giant octopus and a meeting with Captain Nemo.
- This film was supposed to be Steve Coogan's ticket to Hollywood, but it didn't happen. Box office receipts were approximately $80 million less than the production costs. This was the biggest loss for an independent film and bankrupted its producers.
- Chinese authorities requested such a large sum for filming that it proved unacceptable for the filmmakers. As a result, it was decided to build the sets in Thailand, which cost "only" $4,000,000. Ultimately, all scenes in the Chinese village and scenes on the streets of Agra, India, were filmed in Thailand.
- The Statue of Liberty used in the film was made by workers at the Babelsberg Studio. It was entirely constructed from styrofoam.
- Two "flying cars" were made. One was built and used in Thailand, while the other was used in Germany.
- Many of the paintings in the art gallery scene are exact replicas of Vincent van Gogh's paintings.
- The French balloonist whose hot air balloon the film's heroes hijack in Paris is a cameo by Sir Richard Branson, the founder and owner of the "The Virgin Group" business empire, which unites over two hundred companies in the entertainment, mass media, and tourism sectors worldwide. He is also known as a great ballooning enthusiast.
