• Director Alexandre Aja planned to have Joe Dante (director of the original Piranha (1978)) and James Cameron (director of Piranha II: The Spawning (1982)) play boat Captains who give safety lessons to the teens. Dante wanted to do it, but Cameron was too busy.

• Richard Dreyfuss: The Jaws (1975) star appears as fisherman Matt Boyd at the start of the film. Dreyfuss donated his entire $50,000 salary to charity. Boyd is dressed like Hooper, the character Dreyfuss played in Steven Spielberg's movie.
