After the feature film based on the Halo: Combat Evolved (2001) video game series (which was to have been directed by Neill Blomkamp) fell through, producer Peter Jackson went to Blomkamp and offered him $30 million to make whatever he wanted, although this would be Blomkamp's first feature as a director. The result is this film.
The language used by the aliens (clicking sounds) was created by rubbing a pumpkin.
The title is a nod to a real place and a real incident. District 6 was a mixed race neighbourhood of Cape Town which the apartheid government demolished in 1966 to make room for whites.
The first documentary-style film to be nominated for Best Picture Oscar.
Star Sharlto Copley had not acted before and had no intention of pursuing an acting career. He stumbled into the leading role as director Neill Blomkamp placed him on camera during the short film.
"Automated MNU Instructional Voice: [in MNU Humvee] When dealing with aliens, try to be polite, but firm. And always remember that a smile is cheaper than a bullet."
"Wikus Van De Merwe: Get your fokkin' tentacle out of my face!"
