• Filming took place in Montreal and New York.
• The film was released in Australia under the title "The Wrong Man".
• While Jason Smilovich was writing the script in New York, Josh Hartnett was his neighbor. At the beginning of the film, Sleevin frequently wears a towel around his waist, which is because Smilovich often saw Hartnett like that. He also believed that this detail made Sleevin's image more vulnerable.
• An X-ray of a hand can be seen in the coroner's office. The hand belongs to director Paul McGuigan.
• In the scene where Lindsey returns to Slevin's apartment and sees him naked, Lucy Liu's reaction is genuine. Before filming this episode, Josh Hartnett did not warn the actress that everything would be 'real'.
• In fact, 'Lucky Number Slevin' refers to the horse Lucky Slevin, which participated in a race in one of the film's scenes. However, due to the inaccuracy of the film's initial translation, the title 'Lucky Number Slevin' became established in the Russian translation.
• As Slevin walks down the corridor to meet the Goodkat, his hairstyle changes in each shot.
