Movie Trivia:
- When the League arrives at the London Docks, the camera passes by a wall with a poster for a carnival that is coming, there are two names: Dr. Alan Moore and Dr. Kevin O'Neill. These are the names of the gentlemen that created and wrote the comic "League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen". The poster is, in fact, a duplication of the title page of the League of Extraordinay Gentlemen Vol. 1 collected edition.
-
As was the case with From Hell (2001), another movie based on a comic by Alan Moore, the scenes set in London were filmed in Prague.
-
Monica Bellucci was originally cast as Mina Harker, but had to drop out due to schedule conflicts.
-
Filming was delayed due to the summer 2002 floods in Prague, Czech Republic which destroyed more than $7 million worth of sets.
-
There were widespread rumors that Jason Isaacs was to play the part of British Agent Campion Bond. However, in an interview Isaacs revealed he hadn't even read the script and that all reports of him in the role were, in fact, fabricated.
