- Mel Gibson stated that if Desmond T. Doss were alive today, he would want him to be President of the United States.
- One aspect that appealed to Mel Gibson in making this movie was that it contained a "real" superhero without spandex.
- Mel Gibson stated that Desmond T. Doss was the first Conscientious Objector in American history to be awarded the Medal of Honor, and he has inspired others to save almost the same number of lives and those inspired have gone on to become recipients of the Medal of Honor.
- Film debut of Milo Gibson. NOTE: He is the son of Mel Gibson, and this is the first cinematic collaboration between the two.
- Luke Bracey's character states multiple times how hot he thinks Teresa Palmer's character is. This is ironic, since she played his love interest in Point Break (2015).
