- Creator's Oddball: It's Paul Feig, best known for his work in comedy, making a straightforward thriller, albeit one with heavy Black Comedy overtones and self-awareness, though his directorial debut, I Am David, was a drama.
- Market-Based Title: Downplayed example. The movie was marketed in the UK as 'A Simple Favour', incorporating the 'u' used in the British-English version of the word.
- Playing Their Own Twin: Blake Lively plays Emily and her twin sister.
- Star-Making Role: This film came out the month after Henry Golding's breakout role in Crazy Rich Asians.
- What Could Have Been: The movie was originally going to end with Sean proposing to Stephanie via a Flash Mob at the primary school. It was dropped and replaced with the Where Are They Now? cards.
