Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was part of Snipes' European production phase during his tax troubles—he filmed three action movies back-to-back in Bulgaria and Romania.
The Chechen villain plotline cashed in on post-9/11 terrorist fears without any actual cultural research—note how 'Chechen' just means 'foreign bad guy with accent.'
