** A year after HBO canceled the show, Evan Rachel Wood admits she doesn't know the ending since Nolan and Joy never told the cast about it. When she asked them, they refused to tell her anything. Like most of the cast and the fans, she's devastated by the cancellation as not knowing how the story ends kept her at night.

** Much like the movies by [[Creator/ChristopherNolan Christopher]] and Creator/JonathanNolan, the show is shot on 35mm filmstock, making it one of the few which still do so. Plus, the show uses a lot of Main/PracticalEffects for several key sequences, with CGI being used only to embellish certain things which aren't physically possible.
** Creator/HiroyukiSanada appointed himself the show's consultant on Japanese culture, regularly going around the Shogunworld set and making little changes so it would be more authentic, while still allowing through the occasional mistake like the leather in his character's clothes so it would still fit as a literal TheThemeParkVersion of Edo period Japan.
** Jonathan Nolan admits the [[MushroomSamba trippy sequence]] of Caleb being under the ''Genre'' drug influence which let him experience different kinds of film genres was his idea because he likes to experiment on this approach. He even compares to the three-course gum from ''Literature/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory''.
