Bridget Fonda was cast after Jodie Foster and Winona Ryder turned it down.
In Europe and Asia, the film was retitled "The Assassin", after it "underperformed" in the U.S. with its original title. Warner Brothers felt the new title would help sell the action element.
Filmed in sequence. Director John Badham thought this would help Bridget Fonda portray the evolution of her character.
Titled "Nikita" during filming, producer Art Linson and Warner Brothers settled on a new title during post-production that Warner Brothers owned, "The Specialist". However, two months before the film was to be released, Linson was contacted by Warner Brothers executive Bruce Berman, and told that the title would be changed to "Point of No Return". Warner Brothers gave the working title to an upcoming Steven Seagal vehicle, which was yet-to-be-filmed. Ultimately, that movie, The Specialist (1994), ended up starring Sylvester Stallone after Seagal dropped out.
The film's trailer is scored entirely with music from Nikita (1990), of which it is a remake.
