Mark Ruffalo performed his own stunts during the helicopter battle scene.
James Gandolfini was reportedly reluctant to accept the role of Colonel Winter because he didn't understand the story and had never served in the military. He committed largely on the strength of a lengthy speech Winter delivered in the original script. Ironically, the scene was cut from the final film.
Originally, Colonel Winter was supposed to smoke cigars. James Gandolfini pleaded with director Rod Lurie to drop the idea, because he felt it would remind audiences too much of Tony Soprano, his character in The Sopranos (1999).
Robert Redford had trouble with his saluting at first. It took about twenty takes for him to do it right in the early scene where his character is, ironically, teaching Aguilar how to salute.
When Irwin is forced to move a huge pile of rocks, Robert Redford was offered fake featherweight props. He chose to carry real rocks to make the scene more realistic.
"Irwin: [narrating first lines] Take a look at a castle. Any castle. Now break down the key elements that make it a castle. They haven't changed in a thousand years. 1: Location. A site on high ground that commands the territory as far as the eye can see. 2: Protection. Big walls, walls strong enough to withstand a frontal attack. 3: A garrison. Men who are trained and willing to kill. 4: A flag. You tell your men you are soldiers and that's your flag. You tell them nobody takes our flag. And you raise that flag so it flies high where everyone can see it. Now you've got yourself a castle. The only difference between this castle and all the rest is that they were built to keep people out. This castle is built to keep people in."
"Irwin: [to captain Pertz, while looking at Winter's military collection, while Winters overhears their conversation] Any man with a collection like this is a man who's never set foot on a battlefield. To him a minié ball from Shiloh is just an artifact. But to a combat vet, it's a hunk of metal that caused some poor bastard a world of pain."
