⢠George MacKay practiced yoga 3-4 hours a day once he was cast as Bo so he could do the advanced poses he did in the film. He said it was the toughest part of the shoot for him.
⢠At a screening in San Francisco, Matt Ross revealed that throughout filming, the children came to call Viggo Mortensen "Summer Dad"
⢠At the beginning of the campfire scene, you can see Rellian reading "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The novel is about three brothers who -with increasing age- start to shun and rebel against the ways of their father, just like Rellian himself does later in the movie.
