Trivia

  • After studios passed on the movie concept, director Michael Davis put together a 17 minute reel of animated footage, consisting of 17,000 line drawings, giving the studio heads an idea of how the action scenes will play out. This got the attention of New Line Cinema CEO, Bob Shaye, who approved the project and accepted Davis to direct[1].
  • Former WWE wrestler and current TNA star Christian Cage has a short speaking part, that as a Secret Service bodyguard for a United States Senator.
