Edgar Wright’s passion project that he worked on over the course of 20 years
Many stunts performed by actors with training
50 Production vehicles used
Shot lots of extra scenes shot, which involved syncing gunfire and other loud noises to music so the editor would have more to use
Wright made sure there was minimal visual effects used and insisted all stunts were done practically
Wright wanted to use a Toyota Corolla (as it was the most stolen car in 2016) for a chase scene, but the studio said it needed something “a little sexier”
It grossed $226.9 million worldwide
Wright spoke to real getaway drivers and other criminals so he knew how to better direct the actors
It was filmed almost entirely in the city of Atlanta in Georgia, USA
