According to his autobiography, Bubba Smith had initially made a verbal agreement to reprise his role as Hightower. However, Marion Ramsey later called Bubba in tears, uncertain as to why she had not been asked to return. Bubba knew Marion was hurting financially, having already given her a small loan not long before. Bubba said he would see what he could do. When Bubba called the producers to ask if Marion could join the cast, he was told that Hooks could not be written into the script. In defense of Marion, Bubba made the decision to withdraw from the movie. In a peculiar case of life imitating art, this situation mirrors the scene in Police Academy (1984), when Hightower is forced to leave the academy after standing up for Hooks.
The final scene required 250 Russian military police officers as extras. In the midst of a local food shortage, 758 officers showed up on the day of shooting because they'd heard that lunch would be served. Producer Paul Maslansky and his team of Hungarian cooks left in a small van, and returned with a hot meal for everyone who had turned up on-set that day.
The entire cast and crew had to retreat quickly on October 4, 1993, when government troops began their assault on the Russian parliament building. Producer Paul Maslansky and Director Alan Metter were lunching at the United States Embassy when the confrontation began. They decided to re-group with their company at the Hotel Gorbachev Finance Academy, about five miles from the chaos. Filming resumed a few days later, confident that President Boris Yeltsin had regained control.
In scenes around the Russian Duma, black scorch marks occasionally appear on the building. During filming, President Boris Yeltsin was literally at war with the Communist-controlled Duma. The scorch marks are the result of tanks shelling the building.
In an interview, Leslie Easterbrook and Producer Paul Maslansky spoke of the challenges of making this movie in Moscow during the coup in which Boris Yeltsin's White House was burned, and the television center was also stormed by government troops. There were numerous delays shooting on-location, due to interference from local authorities. On one occasion, even though Paul Maslansky had been given the go-ahead to film at the airport, when he and forty vehicles full of equipment, cast and crew arrived to the airport, they were told they were not being let in, due to the state of emergency. This caused filming of those scenes to be re-scheduled for ten days later, while the production instead moved over to Mosfilm, Moscow's main studio, to shoot on the cover sets. For the Gorky Park scenes, they arrived on-location, and were told by Russian officials they would not be shooting there that day. Cast and crew were often hungry, due to a local food shortage. Leslie said, "the story never really gelled, because it was impossible to shoot."
"Airport P.A. Announcer: The red zone is for communist parking only!"
"Captain Thaddeus Harris: Not exactly a four star hotel, is it? Lieutenant Talinsky: Well, we spend our police budget on fighting criminals, not on pampering out of town visitors. Captain Thaddeus Harris: It was your government that brought us here! Lieutenant Talinsky: They also bring in monkeys for zoo, but we don't put them in four star hotel either!"
