What's left behind the scenes
- The first and last name of the character played by Owen Wilson are the names of alcoholic beverages.
- Originally, it was planned to be a musical.
- In February 2020, the New Yorker claimed that the film takes place in a fictional French city. The city’s name consisted of English words with roots in the French language, and translated to mean weariness of life, apathy, and wisdom.
- When the end credits roll, the front pages of some issues of 'The French Dispatch' are displayed. The front pages of The New Yorker served as a source of inspiration for their creation to a certain extent.
- The actors' names on the poster are grouped according to newspaper articles, not in any other order.
- Production designer Adam Stockhausen began searching for filming locations using Google Maps, and only then visited those locations that attracted him. Stockhausen and director Wes Anderson imagined the town as "like Paris, but not today’s Paris, more like a memory of Paris, Jacques Tati’s Paris." This refers to screenwriter, actor, and director Jacques Tati (1907-1982). Eventually, they settled on the city of Angoulême.
- Gwen Germain directed the animated inserts in the film, having previously worked with Wes Anderson on the animated film *Isle of Dogs* (2018). They were exclusively drawn by local illustrators. There were 15 illustrators, and they drew inspiration from *The Adventures of Tintin* and *Blake and Mortimer* comics. It took them about 7 months to create the animated segments.
- To take advantage of the 30% tax credit offered by the French government, 40% of the crew were local residents, and 900 local residents were hired as extras. The administration of the Charente department (in western France) awarded the filmmakers a grant of $190,000.
