Trivia: There are 25 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- Kim Basinger, Emma Thompson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Greta Scacchi, Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan turned down the role of Catherine Tramell. Kelly Lynch was reportedly offered the role, and Mariel Hemingway and Kelly McGillis both auditioned for it. Lena Olin reportedly wanted the role, but refused to work with Paul Verhoeven.
- Writer Joe Eszterhas and producer Irwin Winkler walked off the picture after failing to reach agreement with Verhoeven over how the film should be tackled. Verhoeven promptly hired Total Recall (1990) writer Gary Goldman to come up with some new scenes, most of which beefed up Michael Douglass character and made him less wimpy. These changes were largely made at the behest of Michael Douglas. It was during this stage that Verhoeven realized his changes werent going to work so he had to publicly make up with Eszterhas. Problems reoccurred later when Eszterhas wanted to make more changes to appease the gay and lesbian communities. Verhoeven point blank refused to incorporate these changes.
- The apartment complex where Detective Nick Curran lives is located at 1158-1170 Montgomery Street at the Green Street L-Bend.
