* CompletelyDifferentTitle: In Poland, the series is known under ''Nieśmiertelny'' ("Immortal") title -- probably because the translators thought that literal rendition of the original title ("góral", which is also an equivalent of "mountaineer"), [[{{Narm}} wouldn't sound too impressive]].

** The original script for the first film was much DarkerAndEdgier than the film that got made. Connor was born in 1408 instead of 1518. He lived with his mother and father. In the draft, Heather (Connor's beloved wife in the film) does not exist; Connor was promised to a young girl named Mara whom he loved with all his heart, but who later rejects him after he becomes immortal. Connor leaves his village instead of being banished. His alias in the draft was Richard Tupin and he used an assortment of swords rather than the katana he took after Ramirez's death in the film. Ramirez was a Spaniard rather than an ancient Egyptian born more than two thousand years earlier. The Kurgan was known as the Knight using the alias Carl Smith. He was not a savage, but a steely killer who only played The Game because it was the only thing he had left after thousands of years. Brenda was known as Brenna Cartwright. Other major aspects were later changed during rewrites. Initially, Immortals could have children; in the draft Connor is said to have had 37. The film was originally set in Washington DC and Pennsylvania in the present day rather than New York City. The final showdown took place in a museum.

In a bitterly ironic note (or an hilariously ironic one, depending on one's perspective on the franchise's reputation for inferior sequels), the film was originally intended to end with Connor soberly reflecting that [[AndTheAdventureContinues the Game would go on, and this was just another chapter in his immortal life]], rather than with a final conclusion of Connor earning the Prize.

** David Robb plays Kalas, Duncan's hated enemy and the BigBad of Season 3. Perhaps fittingly, Robb didn't get along with Adrian Paul while they were filming.
