TRIVIA

Trivia

Voletta Wallace, Christopher Wallace's mother, plays herself in the film. She's in the scene with Johnny Depp in the coffee shop.

In August 2018, the film was pulled from the schedule reportedly due to an ongoing lawsuit involving Depp and the film's location manager; no replacement date was announced. Later that same month, on August 23, 2018, reports surfaced that Depp's legal trouble was used as a scapegoat, and the film in fact may be being suppressed by the Los Angeles Police Department, who is implicated in the film, or other various players who do not want the film released. On August 29, 2018, another lawsuit was filed by Bank Leumi for owed millions of unpaid guarantees caused by pulling the film from release.

Appeared on the 2015 Hollywood Blacklist of the "most liked" unmade scripts.

The characters of Rafael Perez, David Mack, and Kevin Gaines are based on real people with the same name as in the movie. During the 90's, these policemen were very infamous in Rampart Scandal, on which this film is based.

Original US release date was 7th September 2018, however it was announced a month before release that the film had been shelved for the time being.
