What's left behind the scenes
- Nicolas Cage turned down the lead role.
- Filming had to be postponed for a week because Tommy Lee Jones broke his ribs.
- The underwater scenes in the huge cistern were directed by Kevin Costner himself, the lead actor, who had directing experience, in cases where Ariel Vromen was unable to do so due to being busy with other projects.
- A life-size dummy of Ryan Reynolds was used in the operating room scene, not Reynolds himself. Filming Reynolds (and the scene took two days to shoot) would have been significantly more expensive, and he himself would not have been thrilled with having to spend a long time in an operating chair resembling a dentist's chair.
- The nickname for Michael Pitt's character is "The Dutchman." He was given this nickname because the first scenes of the film were originally planned to be shot in Amsterdam, Netherlands, but due to the high cost of filming there, the scene was moved to London, and the nickname remained unchanged.
- A significant portion of the filming was done with a drone to minimize the impact on the already complex traffic situation in central London.
- There was no car chase or moving bridge sequence in the original script (there was only a scene with a stationary bridge). This idea was proposed by director Ariel Vromen, who saw a moving bridge while waiting a long time at a London airport.
- The 'clean' room where Tommy Lee Jones' character operates on Kevin Costner's character is a modular structure developed by the London company “Connect 2 Cleanrooms”, which underwent some minor modifications for its use in filmmaking.
- According to the film’s set designer, John Henson, the most challenging part was constructing the secret operating room where Kevin Costner’s character had the memories of Ryan Reynolds’ character implanted. All the operating room equipment had to be custom-fitted to Costner. A three-dimensional scan of the actor's head was made, and a three-dimensional plastic replica of the head was created, which was used to precisely adjust the equipment.
