* ContractualObligationProject: Creator/GaryCooper was not much of a baseball fan, but agreed to do the film as he owed one to Samuel Goldwyn.
* DawsonCasting: Creator/GaryCooper was born in 1901, and Lou Gehrig in 1903, so when this movie was released Cooper was barely two years older than the real Gehrig would have been.
* IronyAsSheIsCast: Creator/GaryCooper was decidedly not a fan of baseball and required extensive coaching in order to look even passable on a baseball diamond. In fact, he had never played the game before, even as a youth, and had never even seen a baseball game in person until he was hired for this film.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Creator/CaryGrant and Creator/SpencerTracy were among those considered to play Lou Gehrig.
** Mrs. Lou Gehrig's choices to play her in the film were initially either Creator/JeanArthur or Creator/BarbaraStanwyck but after seeing Teresa Wright in the movie she was won over.
