The mask Brandon wears seems partially inspired by wasps. An early classroom scene he talks about how certain wasps place their young in a separate hive, getting others to feed them. This is a clear parallel to his situation.
The middle school scenes were shot at the now-defunct Patrick Henry High School in Stockbridge, Georgia. This is the same location used for both Hawkins Middle and Hawkins High Schools in seasons 1 and 2 of Stranger Things (2016).
Brandon Breyer's name follows the classic comic-book convention of superheroes with alliterative first and last names, such as Clark Kent, Peter Parker, Bruce Banner, etc.
Brightburn is mentioned as being in Kansas, which is where Kal-El landed and later grew up to become Superman.
In many scenes, Brandon wears combinations of blue, red and yellow, the main colors in Superman's traditional outfit; This tactic was also used on the character Clark Kent in the TV series Smallville (2001).
"Brandon Breyer: Who am I? Tori Breyer: You're our son. Brandon Breyer: What is this? Where did I come from? Tori Breyer: Listen, baby, I... I know it's been difficult for you lately, that you feel different from other kids. You *are* different. After your dad and I got married, we prayed for a baby for so long, to God, to the universe, to anyone that would listen. One night, one perfect night, someone listened."
"[first lines] Kyle Breyer: Are you okay? Tori Breyer: Mm-hmm. Kyle Breyer: Oh, I like this. Maybe this time we get lucky and make a baby? Tori Breyer: Let's just have some fun. Kyle Breyer: Oh, I like fun. Tori Breyer: Just shut up and kiss me."
