Did you know
ā¢ Bruce Willis's daughter in the movie, Amanda, was played by his real-life daughter Rumer Willis. Rumer wanted the part, but Bruce made her audition like everyone else, and she got the part.
ā¢ The hair Bruce Willis sports in the beginning of the film is an elaborate, realistic wig. The beard, however, is all Willis.
ā¢ The immolation scene with Mars was cut because of the rating. The scene was supposed to have a close up shot of Mars' face melting off the bone. The director said that the scene was too much.
