Trivia / Escape from Planet Earth

• Cross-Regional Voice Acting: While most of the All-Star Cast recorded their dialogue out of Los Angeles (Brendan Fraser and William Shatner are Canadian by birth); much fo the secondary and incidental cast are a mix of veterans from The Ocean Group (Rainmaker Entertainment's long-time voice acting partners) and American actors including Jim Ward, Bob Bergen, Kaitlin Olson, Chris Parnell, and Daran Norris.
• Playing Against Type: Jessica Alba voices one of the villains.

• Troubled Production: In development since 2007, the film stalled in development, had over 17 script rewrites, and the Weinsteins reduced the film's budget by keeping over 200 animators on payroll. Writer-director Tony Leech and film producer Brian Inerfeld later sued The Weinstein Company over this.
• What Could Have Been: James Gandolfini was the first choice to voice General Shanker.
