Did you know

• Alexander Skarsgård said that he always checked in with Nicole Kidman after filming their abusive scenes, to make sure she was okay. He further stated that he roomed with a friend during the shoot rather than staying in a hotel, so he wouldn't have to come home alone. In this way, he had an easier time shaking off the role of Perry after work.

• HBO won the rights for the series in a bidding war against Netflix.

• Shailene Woodley was seriously thinking of quitting acting and had been refusing scripts for a year before this one came her way and she fell in love with the character of Jane. A phone call of encouragement from her friend and co-star Laura Dern solidified her decision to take the role.
