Trivia of xXx: State of the Union
- 'Vin Diesel' (qv) and director 'Rob Cohen (I)' (qv) signed on for this film two months before the original opened. Both ended up leaving the project.- 'Jerry Goldsmith' (qv) suggested to director 'Lee Tamahori' (qv) that he should hire composer 'Marco Beltrami (I)' (qv).
- With the exception of shooting scenes on the Lincoln Memorial and the Ronald Reagan Building, most of the scenes taking place in Washington D.C were shot on sound stages including the main chamber of congress which was 30ft high and 450ft long. It was so good that representatives of _"The West Wing" (1999)_ (qv) TV show even expressed interest in buying it.
- To build a so-called "stealth tank" for one of the sequences in the movie, the production designers took a used truck chassis, shortened it and placed a Freightliner diesel truck engine onto it. "Stealth" panels were then placed on top of it to give the tank its unique look. Tracks were taken from another piece of heavy equipment and fitted onto the "tank". Even a double barrel turret was constructed that could counter rotate.
- Two scripts were written for consideration. One by 'Rich Wilkes' (qv) involves pirates in Southeast Asia and the other, Full Trivia >>
