** One of the second film's shooting locations is the castle Fort la Latte (also known as Château de la Roche-Goyon in French) in Brittany (it also appeared in ''Film/TheVikings''). That castle has existed since TheLateMiddleAges, but it was heavily fortified under the reign of King UsefulNotes/LouisXIV by his war minister Sébastien Le Prestre, Marquis de Vauban. Louis XIV wasn't born when the ''Three Musketeers'' story takes place (in the 1620s), and Vauban's additions are visible.

* AdaptationDeviation: Several things are not from the novel:
** In ''Part I'':
*** D'Artagnan doesn't have his early duel with Rochefort (who's not even named in the film and barely appears) on the way to Paris, he instead joins a fight against multiple henchmen, trying to save a noblewoman who's being kidnapped by Milady (whose face is obscured during the fight). He gets non-fatally shot by Milady for his trouble and ends up BuriedAlive (which is not in the novel either). Also, his recommendation letter for Mr. de Tréville is not stolen.
*** Mr. Bonacieux is nowhere to be seen, removing the SympatheticAdulterer aspect of Constance from the novel.
*** Athos being Protestant. His religion is never brought up in the novel, he's assumed to be Catholic in it. However, the real life musketeers that Aramis and Porthos are based on came from Protestant families.
*** Athos being [[FrameUp framed]] for the murder of a countess and the other Musketeers working to [[ClearTheirName clear his name]].
*** The Protestant rebels subplot, in order to provide more impetus for TheSiege of La Rochelle in ''Part II''. Includes the AssassinationAttempt by the Protestant rebels on the wedding of Gaston de France at the end, which isn't in the novel.
*** The Queen is forced to wear her diamonds at the Echevins Ball in the novel. Here, it's at the wedding of the King's brother, Gaston de France.
** In ''Part II'':
*** Mathilde d'Herblay (the sister of Aramis) and Hannibal are {{Canon Foreigner}}s.
*** Milady attempts herself to kill the Duke of Buckingham, while in the novel she convinces John Felton to do it.
*** [[spoiler:Gaston de France]] as BigBad is not from the novel either.
