What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on James Sallis' novel "Drive" (2005). The book was also published in Russian under the title "Go!".
  • Ryan Gosling replaced Hugh Jackman in the project.
  • Nicolas Winding Refn replaced Neil Marshall as director.
  • Jaz Sinclair auditioned for the role of Blanche.
  • The protagonist's name is never mentioned. He is referred to as "the driver" in the end credits.
  • The driver wears a Patek Philippe Calatrava 5196G watch.
  • Originally, Irene was supposed to be a 30-year-old Latina.
  • Ryan Gosling performed many of the stunts in the film himself, without stunt doubles.
  • Filming took place in Los Angeles.
  • Nicolas Winding Refn decided from the very beginning to include the opera composition 'Oh My Love' from 1971 in the film.
  • The director was inspired by a scene from Claude Lelouch's film 'C'est un Rendez-vous' (1976), where a car races through the streets of Paris, and the soundtrack is filled with the roar of the engine, which is why the chase scene features such vibrant car sounds.
  • Despite the complex and realistic depictions of Los Angeles, Nicolas Winding Refn had no prior knowledge of the city. He spent most of his time with Ryan Gosling to learn about it.
  • The driver is wearing Selima Optique Money 2 Aviator sunglasses.
  • The camera used by the film crew while shooting the driver performing a stunt with a police car is a Panavision Panaflex System 65 Studio, apparently provided by Panavision to the production as a prop.
  • Bryan Cranston, who played the protagonist's friend and mentor, appeared in a 1998 episode of "The X-Files" titled "Drive".
  • Almost all of the blood and injuries were digitally enhanced with computer effects.
  • Carey Mulligan left the project "Violet & Daisy" to star in "Drive".
  • Porn star Bobbi Starr had a cameo role as the raped wife of Bernie Rose's neighbor, Lenny. This scene was cut.
  • Several replicas of the main character's wristwatch (Patek Philippe Calatrava 5196G model) were made specifically for the filming. Gosling later kept one of the replicas as a souvenir.
  • The head-stomping scene was heavily cut during editing as the American Film Association deemed it too violent. For consultation during the filming of the scene, Nicolas Winding Refn turned to Gaspar Noé, who used the same technique in his controversial film 'Irreversible'.
  • Ron Perlman injured his kneecap when the wave hit him during the beach scene.
  • In the film, Gosling's character drives a Ford Mustang GT 5.0, a 1973 Chevy Malibu, and in the beginning of the film escapes a chase in a Chevrolet Impala SS.
  • The second car chase scene featuring the Ford Mustang and Chrysler 300 was filmed for over two days near the Templin highway, where it branches onto the A5 motorway.
  • The scene where the Driver performs a 270-degree turn in his Mustang to evade the Chrysler was filmed in one take.
  • The police tag worn by the Driver reads “McCall,” a reference to prop assistant Dana McCall.
  • Shannon states that the Chevrolet Impala is the most popular car in California, although research indicates it barely makes the top 10, with the Toyota Camry holding the top spot.
  • The Driver calls Irene on his mobile phone but ends the conversation with a sound like hanging up a landline.
  • During the car chase scene, the hero, Ryan Gosling, is wearing gloves, but when he's shown from another angle, the gloves are gone.
  • In one of the scenes, the car's tachometer shows 0 RPM – meaning the car isn't running and is simply being towed. But in the following shots, you can see the engine actually working, confirmed by the tachometer.
  • After the beating, Standard has a large wound on his left temporal lobe. But on the way to the pawn shop, the wound disappears.
  • The main character opens the car trunk to get money, but when he turns to face Bernie, the trunk is already closed.
  • In the chase scene, the main character dodges a silver Ford Focus, and in the next shot, a blue Toyota Corolla is visible instead.
  • At the beginning of the film, when the main character lets the criminals into the car, a distinct squeak is heard, which can only occur when the driver's door is opened.
  • Standard and Blanche spend several minutes in the pawnshop, but during this time the position of the sun changes from midday to evening.
  • During the first chase, the Driver, noticing a police helicopter, steps on the gas for a sharp acceleration. However, the distance between him and the cars ahead does not decrease.
  • Rose kills the guy from the cafe by inflicting several blows to the neck, but afterwards she is holding a clean knife in her hand.
  • The gangster Rose stabs the Driver in the left side, but in the next scene the wound has moved to the right.
  • In the scene where Bernie cuts Shannon's wrists, blood gets on Bernie's jacket sleeve. In the following shots, the jacket is clean.
  • The film is based on James Sallis' novel "Drive" (2005). In Russian translation, the book was also published under the title "Go!".
  • Nicolas Winding Refn decided from the outset to include the opera composition "Oh My Love" from 1971 in the film.
  • The director was inspired by a scene from Claude Lelouch's film "This Is a Date" (1976), where a car races through the streets of Paris, and the soundtrack is filled with the roar of the engine, which is why the chase scene features such vivid car sounds.
  • Bryan Cranston, who played the friend and mentor of the main character, appeared in an episode of the series "The X-Files" titled "Drive" in 1998.
  • Carey Mulligan left the project "Violet & Daisy" to star in "Drive".
