* TheOtherMarty: Creator/MickeyRourke dropped out of ''Film/TheExpendables2'' to co-star in the film. He later dropped out after having disagreements with Creator/MartinMcDonagh, calling him a "jerk-off." He was replaced by Creator/WoodyHarrelson.
* ReleaseDateChange: The film was set for a limited release on November 2, 2012, before being expanded to an earlier, wider release on October 12, 2012.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The original script revolved heavily on the shih-tzu getting shot in the final stand-off of the film. The film boards insisted that they shouldn't show animal cruelty and the script was changed. Billy also refers to this in the graveyard scene when he says "His rabbit gets away, because you can't let the animals die in a movie. Just the women."
