- Tom Hiddleston was offered the lead role, but he chose to star in "Kong: Skull Island" (2017).
- This is the sixth adaptation of Lewis Wallace's (1827-1905) novel "Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ" (1880). It began with a short silent film, "Ben-Hur" (1907), followed by Fred Niblo's "Ben-Hur" (1925); William Wyler's "Ben-Hur" (1959) won 11 Academy Awards; an animated film, "Ben-Hur," was released on DVD in 2003; and a Canadian television series, "Ben-Hur," directed by Steve Shill, was released in 2010.
- Gal Gadot was initially cast as Esther, but she was forced to leave the project due to filming commitments for other movies.
- The film's premiere was originally scheduled for February 26, 2016, but it was postponed to August 2016 in October 2015.
- William Wyler's "Ben-Hur" (1959) received 11 Academy Awards, which remains a record for the most golden statuettes. "Ben-Hur" (1959) shares the first place for the total number of awards with James Cameron's "Titanic" (1997) and Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" (2003).
- Before Nazanin Boniadi, an British-Iranian actress, was cast as Esther, the filmmakers considered Sofia Boutella, Moran Atias, and Natalia Warner for the role.
- Several actors in the film had previously appeared in films based on DC Comics. Morgan Freeman, who played Sheikh Ilderim, portrayed Lucius Fox in Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins" (2005), "The Dark Knight" (2008), and "The Dark Knight Rises" (2012). Ayelet Zurer played Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s mother, in Zack Snyder’s "Man of Steel" (2013).
- Pedro Pascal was initially cast as Pontius Pilate, but Pilou Asbæk ultimately played the part. Both actors appeared in the television series "Game of Thrones".
- The role of Ben-Hur's sister, Tirzah, was initially offered to Olivia Cooke, but Sofia Black-D'Elia ended up playing the part.
- At the insistence of director Timur Bekmambetov, an arena for chariot races was constructed, and the scenes filmed there were shot without computer technology as much as possible. The director believed this was absolutely necessary for realism.
- This adaptation is 1 hour and 27 minutes shorter than the previous version of "Ben-Hur" (William Wyler, 1959).
- Morgan Freeman reads the narration at the beginning and end of the film. The recording of almost all the narration was done in Clarksdale, Mississippi.
- A scene of Jesus, played by Rodrigo Santoro, interacting with the main character was cut from the version released for the Middle East and Muslim countries in other parts of the world.
- Tom Hiddleston was offered the lead role, but he chose to star in "Kong: Skull Island" (2017) instead.
