-The Planet UV6 is made up of land areas called "Fingerprint Terrain". The majority of the effects work for the scenes on this planet were done by "Rhythm and Hues" in Marina Del Rey, California in April and May of 2004. 

 

-There were four complete rooms built on set for Imam's house in New Mecca. They were built in a modular way so that walls could be removed at any time to get shots from every 

angle. 

 

-Hundreds of extras went through basic military training and drills for added uniformity and realism. 

 

-The actors inside the Lensor costumes were skilled in body movement, some were from Cirque Du Soleil. 

 

-Linus Roache originally auditioned for the part of Vaako, but David Twohy immediately saw him instead as the Purifier. 

 

-The entire film was shot at Mammoth Studios in Burnaby British Columbia, a former Sears warehouse. The studio is only smaller than all of the stages on the Universal Studios lot - 

310,000 square feet. 

 

-The line, "Now look at you... all back of the bus and shit," was not originally supposed to be said by Toombs, but Nick Chinlund approached David Twohy and asked if he could be given the line because he really liked it. 

 

-Nick Chinlund apparently really enjoyed the Toombs character. He enjoyed it so much, in fact, that he began writing a Merc Cookbook.(Livret du mercenaire)

 

-Doing a stunt on the set for Planet UV6, Nick Chinlund accidentally swallowed one of his fake teeth.
