Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Denzel performed most of his own driving stunts after telling the insurance company he'd 'been doing this since before they were born.'
The Langa township sequence was shot with actual residents as extras, making it one of the few Hollywood productions to engage South African communities authentically rather than just using Cape Town as exotic backdrop.
