What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on Paul Gallico's novel 'The Poseidon Adventure' (1969).
  • Scenes taking place inside the ship were filmed on two separate soundproof sets at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. One represented a large hall and other rooms in a normal state, the other – inverted.
  • The 'inverted' set was built on top of a huge water tank, which could be filled or drained in a matter of hours.
  • During underwater filming, Josh Lucas sustained an injury when Kurt Russell accidentally hit him in the head with his flashlight, affecting his eye.
  • Many actors and crew members suffered minor injuries and infections due to spending many hours a day in dirty water.
  • Carol Lynley, Red Buttons, and Pamela Sue Martin, who played the leading roles in the original 'The Poseidon Adventure' (1972) film, attended the premiere. Dylan Johns (Josh Lucas) running across the deck during the opening credits is a tribute to the original film, in which James Martin (Red Buttons) makes a similar run across the deck before the night of the disaster. Red Buttons starts, taking a deep breath at the railing on the deck, while Josh Lucas finishes his run at the same railing. Both characters are wearing tracksuits of the same color at that time.
  • Outdoor shooting took only one day, during which Josh Lucas was filmed jogging. These shots were subsequently integrated into a computer-generated opening panoramic shot of a massive ship.
  • The film's producers wanted to shoot it at the Fox Baia studio in Mexico, where 'Titanic' (1997) and 'Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World' (2003) had previously been filmed, but it was booked for other projects at the required time.
  • The wine ordered by Richard Dreyfuss's character before the disaster is Romanee-Conti, the same wine William Holden offers Robert Vaughn in 'The Towering Inferno' (1974).
  • Kurt Russell's character, who is the mayor of New York in the script, is named Robert Ramsay. In 'The Towering Inferno' (1974), produced in part by Irwin Allen, who also produced 'The Poseidon Adventure' (1972), the city's mayor was also named Robert Ramsay.
  • Sheila Allen, the wife of the late producer of the original film, Irwin Allen, who passed away in 1991 and had a small role in it, became the executive producer of the remake.
  • The English transatlantic liner RMS Queen Mary 2 served as the basis for creating the 'Poseidon' model.
  • The film is based on Paul Gallico's novel 'The Poseidon Adventure' (1969).
