In the film, when Elizabeth arrives at St. Paul's Cathedral, construction is going on. In real life, St. Paul's actually needed repair work. Director Shekhar Kapur decided to improvise, and gave the workers costumes and period tools to cut real stone that was being installed in the cathedral. The workers in the scene are real-life stonemasons and construction workers.
To save money, only one ship replica was built. It was Raleigh's English vessel on one side and a Spanish galleon on the other. When filming wide shots of the deck, smoke was used to cover up any separation in design.
With her Oscar nomination for Best Actress, Cate Blanchett became the first female to receive multiple Academy Award nominations for playing the same character.
Director Shekhar Kapur felt that color should reveal a character's internal life. Costume designer Alexandra Byrne did not want to use blue on Elizabeth because it was not a period color. Shekhar felt that blue was the color of yearning and aspiring, and he wanted to portray Elizabeth as yearning to be divine and immortal. Likewise, he conveyed Elizabeth's close relationship with Bess by showing them in similar colors and gown styles. As their relationship deteriorates, their colors contrast or clash.
Although not depicted, Robert Dudley was overall commander of the British forces during the Armada invasion.
"Queen Elizabeth I: Go back to your rathole! Tell Philip I fear neither him, nor his priests, nor his armies. Tell him if he wants to shake his little fist at us, we're ready to give him such a bite he'll wish he'd kept his hands in his pockets! Don Guerau De Spes: You see a leaf fall, and you think you know which way the wind blows. Well, there is a wind coming, Madame, that will sweep away your pride. [turns to leave with his ministers] Queen Elizabeth I: I, too, can command the wind, sir! I have a hurricane in me that will strip Spain bare if you dare to try me!"
"Queen Elizabeth I: Please, just give me hope. Dr. John Dee: The forces that shape our world are greater than all of us, Majesty. How can I promise that they'll conspire in your favor even though you are the Queen? But this much I know. When the storm breaks, each man acts in accordance with his own nature. Some are dumb with terror. Some flee. Some hide. And some spread their wings like eagles and soar on the wind. Queen Elizabeth I: You are a wise man, Dr. Dee. Dr. John Dee: And you, Madame, are a very great lady."
