  • No Stunt Double: Catherine Zeta-Jones performed most (some sources say all) of the climbing and gymnastics in the rafters herself, during the "I stole the Rembrandt" sequence at Mac's castle.
  • What Could Have Been:
    • Ronald Bass' original screenplay contained numerous additional spectacular action sequences involving Mac, including a robbery taking place onboard a moving luxury train, but 20th Century Fox balked when the initial budget for this script was estimated at over $130 million. The final movie excised many of Bass' envisioned super-action scenes (keeping a handful for the theatrical release) and came in at a final budget of $70 million.
    • In the original script, the climactic events were set to take place the minute that Hong Kong reverted back to Chinese rule. However, director Jon Amiel preferred to use something more timely, so the Millennium Eve became the catalyst event.
    • Nicole Kidman was the original choice for Gin, while Angela Bassett auditioned for the role.
