Film
968: Red
Trivia: John C. Reilly was cast as
Marvin Boggs, but dropped out and was replaced by John Malkovich.
While
filming in Toronto, the police received several phone calls reporting machine
gun fire after local residents mistook the movie's gunshot effects for the real
thing.
Meryl Streep was
considered for the role of Victoria.
Brian Cox and Helen Mirren play a
Russian and British spy, respectively. In real life, their ancestry is
reversed: Brian Cox is British and Mirren, though born in England, has Russian
ancestry.
The purse
Victoria uses as a weapon was Helen Mirren's own purse. It was given to her as
a gift from Giorgio
Armani. Since it went so well with the dress she was wearing, and
the purse was part of the script, she asked if she could use it. The producers
said yes.
