What's left behind the scenes

  • Riot scenes were mainly filmed in downtown Oakland, California.
  • Initially, the role of Cassius Green was intended for Donald Glover, but he was busy filming the science fiction action film “Solo: A Star Wars Story” (Ron Howard, 2018). He recommended Lakita Stanfield to the filmmakers as his replacement, having worked with him on the series “Atlanta” (2016-2022).
  • Director and screenwriter Boots Riley wanted to mention Michel Gondry in the film as a sign of deep respect. Considering he was making a comedy himself, he didn’t technically need to ask Gondry’s permission to use his name, but Riley still decided to clarify the matter with Gondry. Gondry gave his permission, but with certain conditions. When Riley accepted all the conditions, he was contacted by Gondry’s representatives who stated that the permission had been revoked. Offended, Riley changed the surname “Gondry” to “Dongri” in the appropriate scene and announced that he would continue to mention Gondry in this way in all his future films until Gondry finally contacted him.
  • Costumes and animatronic heads for the half-human, half-horse creatures were created by “Amalgamated Dynamics,” which had previously created costumes for films in the “Alien” and “Predator” franchises. As Boots Riley stated in a 2018 interview, there was actually only one costume for all these creatures, but several different animatronic heads. The heads were operated by puppeteers, one of whom was responsible exclusively for eye movement.
