What's left behind the scenes
- Tom Hardy and Michael Fassbender were considered for the role of Quaid.
- Kate Bosworth and Diane Kruger were considered for the role of Lori, while Eva Green, Rosario Dawson, and Paula Patton were considered for the role of Melina. Eva Mendes was also considered for both roles.
- Ethan Hawke's character in the script had a lengthy five-page monologue. However, his appearance was completely cut from the final version of the film, and his name was removed from the credits. These scenes will be available on the DVD.
- Colin Farrell had previously starred in "Minority Report" (2002), which was also based on a story by Philip K. Dick and was initially intended as a sequel to the original "Total Recall" (1990).
- This was the first film where married couple Len Wiseman and Kate Beckinsale worked together outside of the "Underworld" series.
- Colin Farrell performed one fight scene himself, although it was shot 22 times before he got it perfect.
- The clerk at the desk at 'Remember Everything' tells Quaid: 'We can remember it for you.' The film is based on Philip K. Dick's story 'We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.'
- Colin Farrell actually spent a night on the set because he wanted 'to see what it's like to wake up in the future.'
- When creating the film set, builders spent $10,000 in a week on screws alone.
- While Quaid is riding the 'Skimmer,' he is reading Ian Fleming's 'The Spy Who Loved Me.'
- Most of the futuristic-looking weapons are actually modern firearms, with practically no modifications. The silver pistol carried by Lori Quaid and various police officers is a Chiappa Rhino 0.357 revolver with a laser sight attached underneath. Police also carry TDI Vector 0.45 caliber submachine guns, while resistance fighters mostly use Heckler & Koch G36 rifles and UMP submachine guns.
- The guy on the street who calls one of the synthetics “Robo-Dick” is a reference to Paul Verhoeven, director of the films “Total Recall” (1990) and “RoboCop” (1987).
- When Quaid gets his safe, you can notice bills with the image of Barack Obama.
- When Quaid tries to pass through the security checkpoint at the entrance to UFB, he is wearing a holographic necklace that displays the face of an Asian person. A moment before that, a woman with a plump face in a yellow cloak is visible. The woman was the image that the necklace gave Quaid in the original 1990 film.
- The hologram of Quaid at the piano says the phrase: “This hologram is limited-interactive, please rephrase your question,” which is a reference to the film “I, Robot,” where the hologram of Dr. Alfred Lanning said a similar phrase.
- To travel 8,000 miles in 17 minutes, the “Skimmer” would need to travel at approximately 28,235 miles per hour. At such speeds, it would have to fly in a vacuum, otherwise it would ignite from air friction.
- If the 'Scat' were in freefall and with no resistance, the passengers would be weightless throughout the journey. However, in the film, conditions of weightlessness appeared only when passing near the Earth's core. If the ship accelerates on its way to the core and then decelerates to a complete stop on the other side, 'inversions' like those at the Earth's core would occur three times, and gravity would be present for almost the entire trip, except for the starting point, the inversion point at the core, and the destination. With acceleration at 1-G, the trip would take much longer (than the 17 minutes stated in the film). Australia is not directly opposite Great Britain.
- In the subtitles to the news report about the train explosion, the name of Bryan Cranston's character is displayed as 'Cohaagan'. And in the film credits as 'Cohaagen'.
