** James Remar features at the beginning of the film as slave trader Ace Speck and later as Butch Pooch, bodyguard to Calvin J. Candie. Which leads to one of the best meta-examples of an IronicEcho as [[spoiler:Christoph Waltz kills Remar in the beginning, and in return Remar kills him back in the end]].

** Jamie Foxx gets to show off his horsemanship in ways that are not strictly plot relevant, but cool anyway. The horse Django rides is one of Foxx's real ones.
** Ted Neeley, a professional singer, performs a rather eerie "Trackers Chant".



* MissingTrailerScene: Interesting example. As per usual on a Quentin Tarantino soundtrack release, there is dialogue from the film interspersed throughout. In two instances, the tracks "In that case, Django, After you," and "5,000 Dollar Niggas" are from alternate or deleted scenes.

* WrittenInInfirmity:
** During the first 40 minutes of the movie, with the exception of a single scene at Big Daddy's plantation, Schultz drives a wagon rather than riding a horse. This was because Christoph Waltz had injured his pelvis in a fall from a horse during shooting. Analysis of the script shows that there was only a small amount of dialogue that ever had to be rewritten due to the cart.

** There was talk of splitting the film into two parts, like ''Film/KillBill'', but Tarantino eventually rejected the idea and cut a whole lot of the planned film. Among what was cut out includes an entire backstory for Creator/ZoeBell's character, which explains that she wears a bandanna over her face to hide a [[ScarsAreForever gruesome injury]]. Tarantino does plan on releasing an extended cut later down the line, restoring some scenes that were left on the cutting room floor.
*** Though given that it is ''[[FlipFlopOfGod Tarantino]]'' it's best not to hold your breathe on the last part.

** Originally the Candyland trackers had a much larger part to play, but much was cut from them to make ''Django'' into a single film. Bell's tracker, for example, was originally going to have an entire fight scene devoted to her, in which it would have been revealed that she's missing the bottom half of her face.

* ThrowItIn: Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio accidentally cut his hand on broken glass in the scene where Candie slams his fist on the table, but continued with the scene. He can be seen picking broken glass from his increasingly bloody hand for the duration of the scene, and Kerry Washington's look of horror as he smears blood on her face was from genuine shock. The scene was used in the final cut, therefore Leo wears a bandage afterwards up until his death scene.
