• Originally, the shower scene included a shot of a handprint on the shower door (the same one used in the trailer and on the Blu-ray/DVD cover), but it was removed because the director decided that Cecilia discovering a bottle of pills was scary enough.
• The heroine's name, Cecilia, comes from the Latin 'Caecus', meaning blind or eyeless, thus she cannot see the Invisible Man.
• Lee Whannell wanted the film's credits to be simple, yet highly meaningful. The film shows waves crashing onto the shore, and the credits appear briefly before being washed away by the sea. The director came up with the idea for these credits directly on set, and only later learned that achieving realism in computer graphics is most difficult precisely when depicting water.
• When working on the Invisible Man, Lee Whannell and his team used a combination of old techniques and the latest advancements in computer graphics.
• Michael Dorman specifically wore costumes a couple of sizes too small for his build to create the image of Tom.
• Pine trees generally do not grow in Australia, and since the film was shot there, the episode in which Elizabeth Moss's character runs into the night and gets lost among the pines had to be filmed in a specially planted forest area where pines are grown for subsequent use in the furniture industry and for Christmas holidays.
• The interior of the house was filmed in four different homes. For example, Adrian's bedroom, played by Oliver Jackson-Cohen, was filmed in the living room of a house in Sydney.
• Finding locations in Australia that could pass for the United States proved to be a difficult task. It was particularly challenging to find a suburban house for James, played by Aldis Hodge. Even his mailbox had to be ordered by mail from the United States.
