What's left behind the scenes

  • As this is the final installment in the unofficial "Cornetto Trilogy," the characters eat mint chocolate chip ice cream (judging by the green wrappers). According to Edgar Wright, the green color symbolizes science fiction and extraterrestrial elements, which are a key motif in the film. In the other films of Wright's trilogy, it was red and strawberry flavor ("Shaun of the Dead," 2004), symbolizing blood and zombies, and also blue and vanilla flavor ("Hot Fuzz," 2007), symbolizing the police.
  • The sign for the pub “The King’s Head” depicts Simon Pegg, the screenwriter and actor of the film, in the role of the king.
  • The fruit machine in the “The King’s Head” pub sounds the same as the fruit machines from the films “Shaun of the Dead” (2004) and “Hot Fuzz” (2007).
  • The girl sitting next to Gary in the focus group was played by Nicola Cunningham. She previously appeared in “Shaun of the Dead” (2004) as Blood Mary (the zombie girl who appears in Shaun and Ed’s garden).
  • This is the second film in the unofficial trilogy to feature a former James Bond (Timothy Dalton appeared in “Hot Fuzz,” 2007), and the first to feature a Bond girl (Pierce Brosnan and Rosamund Pike previously worked together in “Die Another Day,” 2002).
  • The irony of visiting several pubs in Letchworth is that, until 1995, the town had only four pubs and two hotel bars, which was remarkably few for a British town with a population of 30,000. Even by 2011, the situation hadn’t changed much, with the population reaching 37,000 and the number of pubs increasing to seven, while the hotel still had only one bar.
  • The character of Nick Frost works at the law firm "Buckingham Davis Knightly". Buckingham is the real surname of Simon Pegg.
  • The pubs featured in the film were renamed. In Welwyn Garden City, the pub The Cork was temporarily renamed The Famous Cock. The Parkway Bar became The Cross Hands. The Doctors Tonic was transformed into The Old Familiar, and the pub The Peartree was named The First Post.
  • The majority of the film was shot in Letchworth Garden City, with some additional filming taking place in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. Filming took place in local pubs The Tavern, The Colonade, and The Three Magnets. The pub that is called The World's End in the film is actually called The Gardeners Arms and is located on Wilbury Hills Road in Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire. Other locations used during filming include the Broadway cinema, which was renamed The Mermaid, and Letchworth railway station, named The Hole In The Wall.
  • The surnames of the main characters have a "royal" or "courtly" origin: Gary King (king – “king”), Andy Knightly (knightly – “knightly”), Peter Page (page – “page”), Steven Prince, and Oliver Chamberlain.
  • Gary tells the guys: "I'm free to do what I want, whenever I want." This is a line from the song "I'm Free" by Soup Dragons, which plays earlier in the film.
  • If you look closely at the interior of each pub, you can notice the pub number corresponding to the order in which the heroes visited them.
  • The dialogue at the end of the prologue ("We want to be free...") is part of the song "Loaded" by Primal Scream. The original source of the dialogue is the film "The Wild Angels" (1966).
  • Besides the appearance of ice cream, all films in the "Cornetto Trilogy" feature a scene where a character attempts to jump over a fence.
  • The pub "The King's Head" is mentioned in the film "Shaun of the Dead" (2004) as one of the establishments where friends will drown their sorrows.
  • The poster for the film "Armageddon" (2013) is a modified poster for the not-so-popular film "The End of the World" (1977), whose main idea was the creation of doubles by aliens with the goal of conquering the world.
  • The couple Oliver shows the house to at the beginning of the film is the same couple shown the house to at the end of the film.
  • All the parking spaces in the town of Newton-Haven are filled with Amperas Vauxhall cars of various colors, thereby emphasizing the fundamental uniformity that has gripped the town.
  • In the scene where he knocks an alien invader out of a school bully, Pete (Eddie Marsan) grabs a tree branch and begins hitting the hero on the back. This scene is almost identical to the famous scene with John Cleese from the series “Fawlty Towers” (1975–1979). Darren Boyd, who played the school bully, previously played Cleese in the comedy “The Flying Circus” (2011).
  • The flashback footage at the beginning of the film was shot in 16mm, then up to the appearance of the robots it's “Super-35” with a three-perf step, and then up to the final scenes the Panavision anamorphic format with a four-perf step was used. The Super-35 format was used again in the final scene.
  • Throughout the film, some interference and noise are mixed into the background music. This is a hint at the true origin of the alien invaders (the network).
  • Each of the twelve bar names in the film hints at an event that takes place there.
  • The dialogue at the end of the prologue ("We want to be free...") is a part of the song "Loaded" by Primal Scream. The original source of the dialogue is the film "The Wild Angels" (1966).
  • The pub "The King's Head" is mentioned in the film "Shaun of the Dead" (2004) as one of the establishments where friends will drown their sorrows.
