This was the third consecutive action film which Keenen Ivory Wayans had starred in. The others include A Low Down Dirty Shame (1994) and The Glimmer Man (1996) co-starring Steven Seagal.
At the end of the film when James Dunn is watching the news in the TV repair shop, you see both Keenen Ivory Wayans and his stunt double next to each other. He's wearing a Olive Green satin jacket in which Wayans utters "You look just like that guy" as the films' final punchline.
This film reunites Jon Voight and Eric Roberts, since their collaboration in Runaway Train (1985), in which Voight was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor, while Roberts was nominated for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.
Originally, Keenan Ivory Wayans had intended to direct the film but due to problems on "The Glimmer Man" forced him to choose another director. However, after filming had started in August 1996, that director was replaced by David Glenn Hogan after Wayans had seen his work on Barb Wire (1996) which caused a slight delay.
Despite being reunited from their roles in Runaway Train, both Oscar winner Jon Voight and Oscar nominee Eric Roberts do not share any screen time together in the film.
