• The school where scenes from “Easy A” were filmed is located in the town of Ojai, California.
• Olive and all members of her family are named after food items: Olive (English: Olive - olive), father - Dill (English: Dill - dill), mother - Rosemary (English: Rosemary - rosemary), brother - Chip (English: Chip - chips, french fries).
• The original script contained profanity – the word “f@ck” was used 41 times. Later, the script was rewritten, the profanity was removed, and the film received a PG-13 rating (children under 13 are only allowed to watch the film with their parents).
• To film this movie, Emma Stone turned down a role in Zack Snyder's 'Sucker Punch' (2011).
• It was assumed that this film would be the last for Amanda Bynes – she had previously decided to retire from acting.
• Logan Lerman auditioned for the role that ultimately went to Dan Byrd.
• The film was delivered to cinemas under the false title "Most Cities".
• Almost the entire screenplay of the film, with the exception of the last ten pages, was written by screenwriter Burt Royal in just five days.
• Despite the realistic depiction of modern school life in the script, screenwriter Burt V. Royal was homeschooled and never attended high school.
• Allison Michalka auditioned for the role of Olive.
• When Olive remembers films from the 80s and wants "Judd Nelson to raise his fist, realizing he's won me over," she is referring to the cult film "The Breakfast Club" (1985).
• The film that Olive invited Chris Miller to was another adaptation of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter," only in German.
• All the scenes with Olive, filmed with a "webcam," were shot in 14 hours. Actress Emma Stone sometimes got so tired of sitting in one place that during breaks she jumped around the room, trying to loosen her stiff muscles.
• In the scene where Olive asks Evan to tell everyone the truth, she crumbles an ice cream cone (with chocolate glaze). In the next shot, when Olive leaves the cafe, the cone is still in the same place, whole.
• The film was delivered to cinemas under the false title "Most Cities."
