Trivia / Tintin and the Lake of Sharks

• Completely Different Title: In some regions, the movie is called Tintin and the Mystery at the Shark Lake.
• Recycled Script: The movie's main plot was lifted from an album of Hergé's own Jo, Zette and Jocko in which the two heroes end up prisoners in an underwater city.
• What Could Have Been:
  • Hergé planned to stage the plane crash like the fall of the truck in Steven Spielberg's Duel, but it didn't happen due to budget limitations.
  • United Artists initially planned to distribute the film in the USA, but it didn't go through.
