What's left behind the scenes
- In one scene, Mark Sheridan, played by Wesley Snipes, flies on a cable from the roof of a building to the roof of a moving train. This scene was filmed in Harlem, New York. The stunt was performed by professional stuntman Clay Donahue Fontenot, who flew on a strong 20-meter cable. Due to logistical difficulties, neither a safety net nor other devices to ensure the stuntman's safety could be used. It took 10 weeks to calculate the stunt. Immediate preparation for the performance took 8 hours. The stunt took only 7 seconds of screen time.
- In the original script, Sam Gerard, played by Tommy Lee Jones, was to be dressed as a priest for the operation at the beginning of the film. Director Stuart Baird and costume designer Louise Frogley decided that this would not look interesting enough, and came up with a chicken costume for the actor, advertising a nearby cafe.
- The filmmakers inspected aircraft for transporting prisoners and were disappointed to find that their interiors looked like ordinary aircraft cabins. Everything shown to viewers in the part about the detention of prisoners in flight (handcuffs fastened to the floor, an iron cage, an automatic locking system, an open toilet, etc.) was invented by the filmmakers.
- For the airplane crash scene, a "Boeing 727" was rented from the owner of one of the casinos in Las Vegas, two airplane fuselages were purchased, and a fuselage model was built for filming the direct impact with the highway. The crash was filmed on a stretch of road just over 350 meters long. The airplane model moved at a speed of 96 km/h. Retakes were excluded, so the crash was filmed immediately with 9 cameras. Peter Donen, who was responsible for the visual effects, oversaw the entire process. In total, it took six months and the work of 75 people to prepare the filming of this scene.
- During filming, Tommy Lee Jones actually ran onto the road in front of a car speeding towards him. The scene was filmed in one take.
- Shortly after the film's release, Robert Downey Jr., who starred in it, called "U.S. Marshals" "...possibly the worst film of all time."
