This film has been cited as a reason why Pixar cancelled a film they were making with a similar story: "Newt".
Director Carlos Saldanha (himself a resident of Rio) first came up with the concept in 1995. Originally, it was about a penguin washing up on the beaches of the Brazilian city, but when he learned of the production of two penguin-related animation features - Happy Feet (2006) and Surf's Up (2007) - he was forced to radically re-write his screenplay.
During production, Jesse Eisenberg was still working on The Social Network (2010). To compensate for time, he agreed to provide Blu's dialogue on weekends, admitting that it diverted him away from the mindset of his nearly-joyless Social Network character.
When Nigel is recruiting the Marmosets for help, he threatens three monkeys after he tosses the main one in the sky. One monkey has his hands over his eyes, another over his ears, and another over his mouth. (See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil).
The film was based on a true story of a Spix's macaw named Elvis, living in the United States. His owner agreed to let Elvis join the captive breeding program to help preserve his species.
"Blu: So, how far is it to this Luiz? Rafael: Not far! Thirty minutes, as the crow flies. Blu: I see... and how far as the macaw walks? Jewel: Bo-Bo here can't fly. Rafael: But, he's a bird! Blu: Not all birds fly! There are ostriches... Jewel: You are NOT an ostrich! Blu: Well... not technically."
"Blu: [as they're walking in the jungle] Oh! Oh! What was that? Jewel: A stick. Blu: Ah! And that? Jewel: It's just a rock. Blu: Oh, right. Yeah. [Blu stops and shudders as he feels something on his back] Blu: Is that a spider on my back? Jewel: Will you quit it? It's just a leaf! Turn around! [Blu turns and we see a huge spider on his back] Jewel: Oh, um... [Jewel quickly hits the spider off of Blu's back] Jewel: Leaf. Told ya."
