What's left behind the scenes
- In English slang, a "black bag" refers to eavesdropping or obtaining information without official authorization, typically by intelligence agencies. The term originates from the toolkit carried by burglars.
- Director Steven Soderbergh is a big fan of actress Cate Blanchett, and she, in turn, is captivated by his work. She agreed to star in this film without even reading the script.
- The idea for this film came to screenwriter David Koepp while he was writing the script for the action movie "Mission: Impossible" (1996).
- The design of the lamps above the dining table was inspired by a photograph of a coffee table in Steven Soderbergh’s New York home, which he showed to the film’s production designer, Philip Messina. Messina created a lamp design resembling an inverted lamp. The dining table resembles a Rubik's Cube. It unfolds into separate components, and the central part rises upwards. This allows filming to be done directly from the table, and the light source can be moved for use in other scenes.
- Screenwriter David Koepp partially based the character of Michael Fassbender's hero on James Angleton – an intelligence officer who headed CIA counterintelligence operations for two decades.
- To achieve greater authenticity in depicting espionage activities, the filmmakers and actors consulted with high-ranking officials from the Government Communications Headquarters.
- The idea for this film came to screenwriter David Koepp while he was writing the screenplay for the action film "Mission: Impossible" (1996).
