TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Sean Bean spent little time with his young co-stars so as to distance their relationship and make himself seem more unknown and menacing. He believed this would drive the chemistry in a more realistic fashion.

Rutger Hauer who played the character of John Ryder in the original was offered a cameo, but declined for artistic reasons. Hauer has since said in the press that he has yet to watch the remake, and according to some of his friends he shouldn't bother.

The movie that Grace is watching in the hotel near the end is The Birds (1963).

Jessica Biel turned down the role of Grace Andrews while Britney Spears was considered for the same role.

The car Jim drives is an Oldsmobile 442.

Jim Halsey: [Jim see's John's wedding ring] How long have you been fucking your wife? John Ryder: I'm not married. Jim Halsey: Then what's with the ring? John Ryder: Makes strangers think I'm trustworthy. Jim Halsey: Are you? John Ryder: No... [John destroys Jim's cell phone]"

"Buford's Store Clerk: [points John out to Jim] Hey, think this was the guy having the car trouble? John Ryder: [to Jim] That was you? Jim Halsey: Yeah, man... sorry about that. John Ryder: Don't worry about it. I wouldn't pick me up either."
