Trivia: The P-51 Mustang that "Maverick" Mitchell flies in this film is actually Tom Cruise's own airplane.
Trivia: Minor Spoilers: Director David Leitch previously made "Deadpool 2," which starred Ryan Reynolds, and in which Brad Pitt had a brief, blink-and-you'll-miss-it 2-second cameo. Leitch also directed this film, which stars Brad Pitt, and in which Ryan Reynolds has a brief, blink-and-you'll-miss-it 2-second cameo. (Reynolds appears very briefly in a flashback as the assassin Pitt is subbing for).
Trivia: M3gan's scenes were done with an actual person wearing a mask (with some CGI being used to animate the eyes and face.) The girl's name is Amie Donald, and she is an accomplished gymnast and dancer, and in the scenes with the hallway dance and running on all fours were not special effects, Amie actually did those moves.
Trivia: Sonic makes a brief joke about the feud between the actors Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson, who both appeared in the "Fast and Furious" movie franchise. This film is from the same producers as that franchise.
Trivia: When the Tyrannosaurus Rex walks past the circular shaped waterfall, it lines up perfectly recreating the Jurassic Park movie logo.
Trivia: Sweet Pete's tragic backstory is similar to Bobby Driscoll who voiced Peter Pan in the original Disney film. Many people have expressed disgust over this, as it distastefully satirizes Driscoll's own personal tragedy and downfall of being unable to find work after getting older.
Trivia: When Nancy Tremaine (Idina Menzel) is singing to Morgan about her memories to make the tree come to life again she sings a line "Let it glow, let it glow." This is an homage to Idina Menzel as Elsa in Frozen singing "Let it Go".
Trivia: Miles Bron's dining room features several paintings, from the most famous painting in the world the Mona Lisa to others, sometimes with garish self-insertions of Miles himself. One of the paintings is Mark Rothko's Number 207 (Red over Dark Blue on Dark Gray), which Rian Johnson explicitly asked to hang upside down - a hint to the fact that Miles is kinda clueless. (00:41:20)
Trivia: The film's working title was "Vengeance."
Trivia: Doctor Strange casts a spell on the pizza vendor, played by Bruce Campbell, that forces him to repeatedly hit himself. This is similar to a scene from Evil Dead II, which sees Ash, also played by Bruce Campbell, attacked by his own possessed hand.
Trivia: Nolan North, who does motion capture in the games for Nathan Drake, is on the beach at the resort. He asks Nate and Chloe what happened, and they say they fell out of a plane. He says that happened to him once. He's referring to the third game in the Uncharted series where similar events happen.
Trivia: Before this sequel was confirmed, a made-for-TV remake of the original was almost produced for cable channel Freeform as announced in 2017. Star Bette Midler hated the idea of a remake, and openly stated her disapproval. Eventually, about a year later, talk of a proper sequel started up again and the made-for-TV remake was quietly cancelled.
Trivia: The "wolf woman" seen in the montage at the start is played by Chris Hemsworth's wife Elsa Pataky.
Trivia: The first film Colin Farrell's pet donkey "Jenny" has appeared in, making her a "diva", according to Farrell. Her real name is also Jenny - the name was kept to help her react to commands. She kicked Colin Farrell at one point when he was trying to feed her.
Trivia: Although he was nominated for the Golden Globe Best Actor in Drama (in The Whale), Brendan Fraser chose not to attend the Golden Globe Awards, as he alleges that in 2003 he was sexually assaulted by a member of the Hollywood Foreign Press, the body behind the Globes' nomination and voting processes. That incident, along with some health issues, largely derailed his acting career.
Trivia: This was filmed back to back with the as-yet-untitled Avatar 3. But filming didn't start until the scripts were written for 2 further sequels, so the actors would know the paths that their characters were on. James Cameron allocated the scripts to different writers after months of meetings and storyboarding. He didn't tell the writers which script they'd be working on until the end, because he knew "they'd tune out every time we were talking about the other movie."
Trivia: Winston Duke's line "you bald-headed demon" was improvised.
