What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on the novel "The City of Ember: Escape" by Jeanne DuPrau (2003).
  • The rights to adapt the novel were acquired by Tom Hanks' production company Playtone back in 2004. At that time, they also secured an option for a sequel based on the second part of the trilogy, but all such plans fell through after the film's complete failure at the box office.
  • The film became the last acting role for 86-year-old British actress Liz Smith at the time, who announced the end of her long acting career in July 2009.
  • The main filming location was an abandoned paint hall at the Harland and Wolf shipyard on the site known as Titanic’s Quarters, named after the famous ocean liner built there. The general view of the underground city was recreated there, and there were so many various small additional filming locations that some of them remained practically unused.
  • Filming took place from June to October 2007.
  • The film is based on Jeanne DuPrau's novel "The City of Ember: Escape" (2003).
