- Cast the Runner-Up: Originally Gerard Butler was supposed to be Nick while Jamie Foxx was signed to play Clyde. At the last minute, though, Gerard thought it would be interesting to play Clyde, and asked Jamie if he minded switching roles. Jamie loved Gerard's performance in 300, and thought that as a viewer he would love seeing Gerard "beating people and blowing stuff up". Butler said that having Foxx and himself switch roles would be "awesome".
- Casting Gag: This isn't the first time Josh Stewart has broken into a family's home, only to end up trying to save them from someone much worse.
- Wag the Director: Allegedly, Jamie Foxx wasn't happy with the original ending that would have had Clyde win definitively, and refused to keep working until it was changed to have him beat Clyde.
