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).
