What's left behind the scenes

  • Director Chris Nahon had to slow down the fight scene between Jet Li and Cyril Raffaelli because the actors were moving too quickly.
  • The fight scenes in the film had to be "adjusted" to suit the tastes of audiences, who expressed many criticisms to Jet Li after the release of Andrzej Bartkowiak's action film “Romeo Must Die” (2000) in the United States. Fans of the actor wanted to see more realistic fights, something similar to what they enjoyed in “Fist of Legend” (Gordon Chan, 1994).
  • The tunnel where Jet Li's character is overtaken by the French police is the same one in which Princess Diana (1961-1997) died.
  • In one scene, Jet Li's character attacks the pimp Lupo, played by Max Ryan. It was assumed that the dialogue between the actors would be filmed separately from the fight, but after the exchange of lines, the director, for some reason, didn't say "Cut!", and Li delivered a blow. That take made it into the final version of the film, along with Ryan's completely genuine surprise.
  • Computer technology was used only twice in the film: in the scene where Jet Li's character falls down a laundry chute surrounded by flames, and in the scene where he kicks a billiard ball.
