Because it was not certain that the movie would be a hit, and that other adaptations of Dan Brown's novels would follow, this movie was made as a stand-alone movie, rather than the beginning of a franchise. All references to the fact that Robert Langdon had already solved another murder riddle (in the novel "Angels and Demons", which precedes "The Da Vinci Code") were therefore purposefully left out of the script. When the movie was a huge financial success, production of Angels & Demons (2009) was started shortly after the release (but re-written as a sequel, not a prequel).
To protect both the fabric of the building and the works of art it contains, the production's use of the Louvre Museum in Paris was carefully controlled. For instance, no equipment was allowed inside the Louvre during the opening hours, so filming took place at night. Since the crew were not permitted to shine light on the Mona Lisa, a replica was used to film instead. No blood or mysterious writings were permitted on the wooden floor of the museum, so these scenes were shot at Pinewood Studios, outside London. In the end, five replicas of the Mona Lisa were used.
Audrey Tautou revealed that, during her audition, she asked if she could take a photo of Ron Howard and Tom Hanks to prove that she'd actually met them.
When Teabing (Sir Ian McKellen) is describing the passage in the lost gospel of Philip, he is interrupted before he can finish quoting a line about Jesus kissing Magdelene. During an interview on NPR's "Day to Day," religious historian Elaine Pagels (whose book on the gnostic gospels was a source for Dan Brown's novel) said that the gospel is physically broken at exactly the place that Teabing stops talking, so he would be unable to quote it any further anyway.
The poster outside the elevator in the Louvre is Caravaggio's "The Boy in the Well." This represents Langdon's falling in a well as a boy.
"Robert Langdon: This is the original icon for male. It's a rudimentary phallus. Sophie Neveu: Quite to the point. Sir Leigh Teabing: Yes, indeed. Robert Langdon: This is know as the blade. It represents aggression and manhood. It's a symbol still used today in modern military uniforms. Sir Leigh Teabing: Yes, the more penises you have, the higher your rank. Boys will be boys."
"Robert Langdon: Nobody hates history. They hate their own histories."
