Made only $126 on the opening day of its limited U.S. theatrical release, where the movie was screened in 12 theaters in 12 U.S. cities.
Emma Roberts was originally to join the fifth season of American Horror Story (2011), but she dropped out in order to shoot this movie.
Judd Nelson, who here plays Ryan Hunt, played Joe Hunt in Billionaire Boys Club (1987).
Unlike with All the Money in the World (2017), Kevin Spacey's performance was kept intact despite sexual misconduct allegations, directly affecting the marketing of the film.
Filmed between 2015 to 2016, was originally going to be released in 2017, then was put on hold until it would finally be released mid-2018.
"Ron Levin: There are only 17 Bullas on the entire planet, and every single one of them... is locked in a museum. Joe Hunt: It's a fake. Ron Levin: But you thought it was an original. Joe Hunt: Yeah. Ron Levin: And why?... Because the perception of reality... is more real than reality itself..."
"Ron Levin: I had been working at Rothschild for a year. When suddenly I found myself thrown in front of a discipline committee and was forced to defend myself. And... I had nothing. 21 stories and none of them good. So I came clean. Joe Hunt: They take your license? Ron Levin: No, I mean they could have, they should have, but no. Because what I was doing wasn't illegal... yet. I was ahead of the law. I mean, it was unethical and corrupt. Immoral if you believe in that sort of thing. But it wasn't illegal, so they had nothing. So guess what they did. They asked me to write the code to prohibit the kind of trading that I had been doing. How brilliant is that? That hearing made me with the SEC. And I realized that day... sometimes the truth is the best lie."
