Trivia: Jennifer Beals never actually danced in the movie. The dancing was actually done by three different people. Marine Jahan a professional dancer did most of the dancing. The dives through the air were performed by Sharon Shapiro who was a UCLA and National Gymnastics champion. The breakdancing parts, such as the floor spin, at the audition were performed by Richard Colon known as Crazy Legs who was the leader of world renowned breakdancing troupe The Rock Steady Crew.
Trivia: High Road to China was a knockoff of Raiders of the Lost Ark, which was orginally supposed to star Selleck. (The shooting schedule for Magnum, PI kept him from appearing in Raiders.)
Trivia: Remember the bit in Scream where Tatum says of this film "if you freeze it just right you can see his penis"? Well, she's right - you can! (It's in the love scene right after the girl plays sax in the street.) Keep in mind that it's a body double, not Tom Cruise, though.
Trivia: Colleen Camp plays Deborah Foreman's mother in the movie, even though in real life she's only 9 years older than Foreman.
