- Development Hell: The film was originally set to be produced by Franchise Pictures with distribution by Warner Bros., which began to suffer serious financial problems early into production due to the failures of its previous film, and allegations of fraud concerning artificial inflation of the film's budget to increase investment from German production company Intertainment AG. This led Franchise's then-parent company Mobius International to take over production.
- Due to last-minute budgetary constraints imposed by the new producers, the film's script was heavily rewritten to accommodate a reduced shooting schedule (40 days to 22 days).
- Lead actor Jason Statham had signed a two-picture deal with Franchise, a deal which included both Chaos and a heist film titled Baker Street. Needless to say, his lack of enthusiasm shows on camera.
- The film premiered in the United Arab Emirates on December 15, 2005, but didn't receive a North American release up until over two years later, where it was distributed direct-to-DVD on February 19, 2008.
