- The framing and close ups in Persona (1966) were used as inspiration.
- Third film starring Scarlett Johansson that was inspired by a writer-director's own experience with divorce; the previous films being Lost in Translation (2003) for Sofia Coppola and Her (2013) for Spike Jonze respectively. Interestingly enough, Coppola and Jonze were married to each other in the past.
- Marriage Story was the first Netflix film to be granted the longest theatrical release of 30 days.
- Both Noah Baumbach and Adam Driver were fans of the musical: Company, thus both decided to have the Charlie sing Being Alive and Nicole sing You Could Drive a Person Crazy in the film.
- Uniquely, Marriage Story is love story told through the lens of a divorce.
