What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on Max Brooks' novel 'World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War' (2006).
  • Hungarian police seized over 100 weapons from a film set. These were not stage props, but actual combat weapons. The shipment, which arrived by plane, included 85 fully functional automatic rifles. The use of real weapons in filmmaking is not uncommon, but in this case, the documentation for the shipment was not properly completed.
  • Hollywood’s interest in “World War Z” was so great that Pitt’s studio and its partners at Paramount had to participate in an auction where their main competitor was Leonardo DiCaprio’s team from Appian Way. Both actors dreamed of fighting zombies, but Pitt’s pockets proved deeper, and in 2007, Plan B acquired the rights to “World War Z”.
  • Ed Harris and Bryan Cranston could have played roles in this film, but left the project due to scheduling conflicts.
  • Filming took place in several areas of the UK, including Cornwall, where scenes at the UN and the Ministry of Defense were shot. Filming also took place in Glasgow (Scotland), where the streets were specifically made to look like those in Philadelphia, with many American cars, trucks, and taxis. Even street signs were brought in from the US. Part of the film was shot in Valletta, Malta.
  • At the beginning of the trailer, which appeared in March 2013, at the moment when Brad Pitt’s family is having breakfast, the radio reports on a flight that landed without permission, before martial law was declared in Russia. This is very similar to the infamous zombie story flight 575, from which infected passengers disembarked after landing.
  • Robert Richardson was initially hired as the film's cinematographer, but he was later replaced by Ben Seresin.
  • The main character flies from Jerusalem on a Belarus Airways plane. However, an airline with that exact name does not exist.
  • In the early minutes of the film, news footage shows clips of the Chelyabinsk meteor fall, captured on a dashcam on February 15, 2013.
  • Peter Capaldi played the role of a medical employee of the World Health Organization, listed in the credits as “W.H.O. Doctor.” Two months after the film's world premiere, it was announced on BBC that he had been cast as the twelfth incarnation of the Doctor in the series “Doctor Who” (2005).
  • Konstantin Khabensky played a Russian fighter, but these scenes were cut from the final release of the film, although the actor’s name is listed in the credits.
  • The airplane Jerry Lane flies in changes throughout the film. In some scenes it's an An-12, in others a Lockheed C-130 Hercules.
  • The Pepsi bottles in the office of the World Health Organization in Cardiff (UK) have American labels indicating calorie content.
  • The US Air Force does not use the An-12 aircraft.
  • In the apartment of the Mexican family, Jerry Lane (Brad Pitt) attaches a kitchen knife to a rifle with tape, but after killing the first zombie, when he is standing near the door and aiming at the zombie running up the stairs, the kitchen knife is no longer on the rifle, and in the next frame it is back in place.
  • In the vehicle (RV), Jerry Lane's (Brad Pitt) daughter finds a rifle with an optical sight in the closet, after which Jerry Lane takes the rifle from his daughter and places it behind the driver's seat, and when they arrive in Newark (New Jersey) and stop near the supermarket and get out of the vehicle, Jerry Lane takes the rifle from the wall of the RV.
  • In scenes where Pitt’s character forcefully plunges a crowbar into a zombie in the laboratory corridors, he frantically tries to extract the tool from the body of the killed zombie upon seeing another infected, which doesn't happen immediately. However, when he finally manages to do so, we see a perfectly clean, raised crowbar!
  • In the car (a "home on wheels"), Jerry Lane's (Brad Pitt) daughter finds a rifle with an optical sight in the closet, after which Jerry Lane takes the rifle from his daughter and puts her behind the wheel. When they arrive in Newark, New Jersey, and stop near the supermarket, leaving the car, Jerry Lane takes the rifle from the wall of the vehicle.
