Trivia / Le Gendarme et les extra-terrestres

• Follow the Leader: It doesn't come off as a surprise that the film has a sci-fi/space/alien theming considering the monster success of Star Wars back in 1977 and 1978.
• The Other Darrin:
  • Josépha Cruchot was played by Maria Mauban here instead of Claude Gensac, who came back in Le Gendarme et les Gendarmettes.
  • Mrs. Gerber is played by Micheline Bourday here instead of Nicole Vervil, who played the character in Le Gendarme de Saint-Tropez, Le Gendarme se marie, and Le Gendarme en balade. Bourday would remain on Le Gendarme et les Gendarmettes.
• You Look Familiar: Mario David played Frédo the butcher in Le Gendarme se marie. Here, he plays a guy who steals an oil can.
