TRIVIA

Trivia

In November 2024, Dias and Owens' friend, Takema Robinson, announced the creation of Standing in the Gap Fund, in honor of Owens. It was founded to support families like AJ's who are suffering from loss and unsure of how to navigate the aftermath. Standing in the Gap has a fundraising goal of over $3.5 million by 2030.

Ajike Owens was the best friend of director Geeta Gandbhir's sister-in-law.

Director Geeta Gandbhir explained that there's police body camera footage of those on the scene trying to revive Ajike, but she and the production team chose not to include this. "We didn't want it to feel exploitative, We wanted to show just enough so that the audience could be immersed in the moment - how terrifying it was, how terrible it was."
