What's left behind the scenes

  • Jimmy Smith was a fan of this story even before it conquered Broadway, and before it was adapted for the screen. When asked to participate in recording a promotional script for television, he even refused a fee and requested several tickets to the Broadway show.
  • While Kevin waits for a response, the melody from "Hamilton," Lin-Manuel Miranda's 2020 musical, can be heard in the phone receiver.
  • Filming of the musical coincided with the filming of Steven Spielberg's remake of the 1961 drama "West Side Story," originally directed by Robert Wise (1914-2005) and Jerome Robbins (1918-1998). The shoots often took place nearby each other. According to director Jon M. Chu, they often watched a food truck heading to Spielberg's set to feed the cast and crew. And once, Miranda secretly went to Spielberg's filming location to watch the filming of the musical number "Maria."
  • The pool scene was scheduled to be filmed in two days, but due to the weather, it took three days. The delay was caused by a thunderstorm front, as the scene was supposed to take place on the hottest day of the year. At times, all the actors were ordered to get out of the pool because it was simply dangerous to stay there.
  • The photographs held by Anthony Ramos's character are actual photographs of the aftermath of Hurricane Maria's impact on Puerto Rico in 2017.
  • Washington Heights is the actual name of a neighborhood in Washington in the northern part of the city.
  • Mark Anthony's character was created specifically for the film. Anthony was a big fan of the musical and watched it repeatedly. Lin-Manuel Miranda saw Anthony in the musical with music by Paul Simon, “The Capeman,” offered him the role, and Anthony happily agreed. When he first arrived on set to discuss the role with director Chu, he was met by so many fans and paparazzi that the meeting had to be held directly in a limousine.
