Did you know

• D'Artagnan did really exist. His name was Charles de Batz and was called D'Artagnan after he arrived in Paris, probably because he came from the commune of Artagnan in the south-west of France (where the movie was partly shot).

• The first film that director Peter Hyams had directed without his long time editor Steven Kemper, who vowed not to work with the director after the last few films he had directed which included End of Days (1999) and The Relic (1997) were too darkly lit and shot causing editorial problems.

• One of a few Peter Hyams movies that do not contain a character (or place) called Spota, which is his wife's maiden name.
