The bus depot filming location was the Broadstone Dublin Bus Depot, in Dublin 7, Ireland. Formerly, the Broadstone Railway Terminus, prior to the de-commissioning of the Great Western Railway line, and it being used as a bus depot, in the mid 2010s, the forecourt was completely demolished to accommodate the Luas Cross City tram stop and route passing what later became the new consolidated DIT Grangegorman University campus. By coincidence, the former "mental hospital" land adjacent to Broadstone Depot, that later became the DIT Student Accommodation site, was used as a backlot to build the (geographically inaccurate) O'Connell Street/GPO exterior set for Neil Jordan's Michael Collins (1996).
The film is the first acting movie role for Jonathan Rhys-Meyers.
