Trivia / Not Okay

• Creator Couple: Director Quinn Shephard cast Nadia Alexander as supporting character Harper. The couple had met during filming of Blame, Shephard's directorial debut, which both starred in. During the final days of filming Not Okay, Alexander proposed and Shephard accepted.
• Queer Character, Queer Actor: Harper is a lesbian, while the actress who plays her, Nadia Alexander, is pansexual.
• Ripped from the Headlines: There are many similarities with the story of Tania Head, who claimed to be a 9/11 survivor and gained substantial fame, only to be revealed as a fraud (just as Danni, Tania wasn't even in the attacked city, but in her native one, in her case Barcelona, and attended the survivor groups alongside real survivors).
