Did you know

Though filmed in late 2006, "Carriers" was not released by Paramount Pictures until September 2009, following the success of Chris Pine's appearance in Star Trek (2009).

Though Danny (Lou Taylor Pucci) is the film's primary protagonist, Chris Pine, as Brian, was given top billing - a conscious decision made by Paramount Pictures following Pine's newfound fame via Star Trek (2009).

Due to real-life parallels, the film saw renewed interest during the COVID-19 pandemic, along with similar disease-related works: The Stand (1994), Outbreak (1995), and Contagion (2011).
