What's left behind the scenes
- To gain 8 kg of muscle mass for the role of Nicky Larson, Philippe Lacheau underwent 8 months of grueling training and a special diet.
- Filming took place in Paris and in the south of France.
- At the beginning of the film, Laura takes a photo with an image of the XYZ code. In the original manga and anime "City Hunter," this code is used by Ryo Saeba's clients to schedule a meeting.
- In one scene in the film, Nicky Larson sees a gust of wind lifting a woman's skirt. At the same moment, a cawing crow flies across the frame. This is another reference to the original. In the manga and anime "City Hunter," whenever someone does something foolish, a crow flies by, cawing "A-ho! A-ho!". Translated from Japanese, "aho" means "idiot" and is similar in sound to the crow's caw.
- To better understand and feel the world of the main character, Nicky Larson, Julien Arruti, Philippe Lacheau, and his brother Pierre Lacheau (all members of the creative team behind the 2014 comedy "Babysitting," directed by Nicolas Benamou and Philippe Lacheau) rewatched all 144 episodes of the cartoon series shown in France and reread all 37 issues of the manga.
- Filming began on May 21, 2018, and ended in August of the same year. The entire process took only 14 weeks of filming, which is rare for a French comedy. Filming took place at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport, and was planned to continue in Monaco, Paris, and in Île-de-France (this is a historical region of France and the region between the Seine, Marne, and Oise rivers).
- At the beginning of the film, Laura takes a photo with an image of the XYZ code. In the original manga and anime “City Hunter”, this code is used by Ryo Saeba's clients to schedule a meeting.
- In one scene in the film, Nicky Larson sees a gust of wind lift a woman's skirt. At the same moment, a cawing raven flies across the frame. This is another reference to the original. In the manga and anime "City Hunter", whenever someone does something foolish, a raven flies by, cawing "A-ho! A-ho!". Translated from Japanese, "aho" means "idiot" and sounds similar to a raven's caw.
