What's left behind the scenes
- Luc Besson wrote the screenplay for the film back in middle school.
- Leeloo's full name is – LeelooMinai Lekatariba Laminachai Ekbat Deba Sabat.
- The language spoken by the character Leeloo (Milla Jovovich) was invented by Luc Besson himself. Of course, the actress herself also contributed some improvisation. By the end of filming, they could chat with each other calmly in the invented language, which delighted the film crew.
- Among the unintelligible words, one can clearly hear: “Mlartha,” “Big Badaboom,” “Akta,” “Seno Akta Gamat,” “San agamat chey bet Envolet,” “Danko,” “Domo Danko,” and “Apipulai.” All other phrases sound incoherent.
- At the very beginning of the film, the character Gary Oldman quotes Nietzsche: “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” Bruce Willis once recorded an album with the exact same title.
- The character Chris Tucker was originally supposed to be named Lock Rod, not Ruby Rod. This is the name that appears in the book based on the film.
- The first time we see Corben Dallas on screen, we can see the date on the calendar in his room – March 18, 2263. March 18th is Luc Besson's birthday.
- When the President tells Father Cornelius that he has 20 seconds to express his thought, Vito manages to convey his judgments in exactly 20 seconds.
- The opera singer's name is Plava Laguna. This is also the name of a bomb shelter in Croatia where Luc Besson spent his childhood summers. Translated from Croatian, it means 'blue lagoon'.
- At the time of its release, the film was the most expensive production for both France as a whole and for the Gaumont film company in particular.
- By the time the film was released, the $80 million spent on special effects was the largest in the history of cinema.
- In 2002, a computer arcade game, "NY Race," was released under license from Gaumont based on the film. In Russia, it was localized by Nival Interactive and 1C under the title "The Chase for the Fifth Element." The player is offered to play as Korben Dallas and race a taxi through the streets of New York in 2259.
- Part of Plavalaguna’s aria was created on a computer.
- The inscription on the "McDonald's" train that a police car crashes into reads: "Served 65 trillion people."
- The parasites that are cleaned from the spaceship's chassis before departing for Floston’s Paradise are Boglins, popular toys from the 1980s.
- Gary Oldman agreed to star in the film without reading the script. It was a favor to Luc Besson, with whom he became friends during the filming of 'Leon'.
- The explosion in the main Florston Hall at the time of the film's release was the most powerful indoor explosion in cinema history.
- Billy Masterson, an assistant professor studying Egyptian frescoes in 1914, is armed with a Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer automatic pistol, model 1932.
