What's left behind the scenes
- The scene with the gladiators features full-size replicas of the pieces the android robot used to play with Chewbacca aboard the smugglers' starship in the film 'Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope' (1977). Both the shape of the game board and the move made by R2-D2 are replicated here.
- Stop-motion animation was used for the scenes where the main character battles the robots. The robot figures were created by specialists from Phil Tippett's company.
- Jeremy Allen White did not appear on set. He pre-recorded his character's lines, which were played back at the appropriate moments during filming.
