What's left behind the scenes
- Initially, it was announced that Chris Pine and Elizabeth Olsen would play the lead roles. Subsequently, Pine left the project, and his role was given to Jeremy Renner.
- During filming, Elizabeth Olsen developed snow blindness – an inflammation of the eyes caused by sunlight reflected off the snow.
- Filming took place in Park City, Utah. This is also where the Sundance Film Festival is held, where the film premiered on January 21, 2017.
- During filming, the director and screenwriter Taylor Sheridan was approached by chiefs of the Shoshone (a North American group of Indian tribes) who reported twelve unsolved cases of murdered girls within the reservation, where approximately 6,000 people lived. Due to a government decree adopted in 1978, the US Supreme Court deprived Native American tribes of the right to arrest and punish non-Native Americans who committed crimes on reservation land. In cases where neither the victim nor the perpetrator were Native American, only a county or state police officer could make an arrest. However, if the perpetrator was non-Native American and the victim was Native American, the right to make an arrest was reserved solely for a federal law enforcement official. In cases where the perpetrator was Native American and the victim was not, a police officer hired by Native American tribes could make the arrest, but the case had to be tried exclusively in federal court. As a result, a legal nightmare arose within the reservations, and many criminals did not face any punishment for serious crimes.
- Filming on location took place in terrible weather conditions, requiring actors and the creative team, along with their equipment, to be transported to and from the set on snowmobiles, as conventional vehicles proved completely unsuitable. After vehicles had traversed the untouched snow, the tracks had to be covered up to maintain the pristine snowy landscapes in the shots.
- After cases of Harvey Weinstein's harassment of women came to light in 2017, Taylor Sheridan called David Glasser, then chairman of The Weinstein Company, with an ultimatum, demanding that the company remove its logo from the film and agree to forgo profits from its distribution, and adding that the company could not count on future collaboration with him. Glasser accepted the terms of the ultimatum without reservation.
