Trivia[]
- The movie poster showing Ryan Reynolds carrying Samuel L. Jackson is a spoof of the poster for The Bodyguard (1992) where Kevin Costner is carrying Whitney Houston. Even the tag-lines are the same (albeit with pronoun changes).
- Samuel L. Jackson spoke one hundred and twenty two expletives throughout the film.
- The script from the film was among the top 2011 Black List of unproduced screenplays.
- While originally intended as a drama, the script underwent a "frantic" two-week rewrite to be remade into a comedy several weeks prior to filming.
- On March 9, 2016, it was reported that Wadlow had exited the film and Patrick Hughes signed on to direct the film.
