According to producer Norbert Saada's interview in the documentary "Once Upon A Time Sergio Leone", Italian director Sergio Leone was offered to direct, but turned it down because he did not like the casting of Yul Brynner in the title role.
Yul Brynner was on "Variety"'s list of Top Ten Overpriced Stars in 1968.
The first of three consecutive films that Robert Mitchum made in Europe. This was filmed in Spain, and he then headed to Italy for Anzio (1968), and followed that with a brief stint in Secret Ceremony (1968).
Sam Peckinpah wrote the original script and was set to direct, but Yul Brynner didn't like the script because it made Pancho Villa - a man who had given standing orders to shoot all prisoners - "look like a bad guy". Peckinpah was fired and his script was rewritten by Robert Towne to conform to Brynner's idea of what Villa was like.
One of the extras in the film, playing a Mexican guerrilla girl, is Turkish singer Seyyal Taner. She would later receive notoriety for scoring no points in the 1987 Eurovision song contest.
