Trivia
- Josh Hartnett lived with Writer Jason Smilovic and his girlfriend in New York while the script
was being written. Smilovic said that he thought of having Slevin wear a towel a lot of the time
because he saw Hartnett in one so often. More so it added a vulnerable quality to Slevin.
- The hand X-ray in the coroner's office is the director's hand.
