• The first joint project between Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures since the release of Jan de Bont's disaster film "Twister" in 1996.
• Filming began on May 6, 2015.
• The first film to star the duo of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart.
• This is the second spy comedy in Dwayne Johnson's acting career. The first was Peter Segal's "Brainwashed" (2008).
• This is the second film in Jason Bateman's acting career where he plays the former tormentor of the main character. The first was Joel Edgerton's thriller "The Gift" (2015).
• Megan Park, who plays the role of a bartender, starred in the dramatic television series "Secret Life of the American Teenager" (2008-2013), where she played a Christian and member of a chastity group at the local church. Molly Ringwald, who starred in John Hughes' teen comedy "Sixteen Candles" (1984), also appeared in this series, in which a character played by Dwayne Johnson is in love with her character.
• When the characters played by Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson first meet, the former tells the latter that he resembles Hercules. In 2014, Brett Ratner's film "Hercules" was released, starring Johnson in the title role.
• Throughout the film, Dwayne Johnson wears a fanny pack, which is the subject of constant ridicule. In this way, the filmmakers pay homage to a popular internet meme from the 1990s, which features Johnson sporting such a bag.
• Aaron Paul in the film "Half Brothers" repeated his famous expression "Holy mother!" from the crime drama series "Breaking Bad" (2008-2013).
• Kevin Hart's character mentions Tim Story's comedy "Barbershop" (2002), starring rapper and actor Ice Cube. Hart and Cube worked together on the film "Ride Along" (Tim Story, 2013) and its sequel "Ride Along 2" (Tim Story, 2016).
• When Kevin Hart's character tries to shoot Aaron Paul's character, he runs out of bullets in his gun and throws it at Aaron Paul. Paul catches the gun, inserts a new magazine, and reloads, with a shell casing ejecting from the pistol. The casing should have ejected immediately after the shot.
