The producers originally rejected director Alexander Mackendrick's choice of Katie Johnson for the role of Mrs. Wilberforce on the grounds that she might be too frail for the project, and so they cast a younger actress who died before filming began.
In an interview, Peter Sellers stated that this was "the first real film I made. I can remember all of that very well. I used to watch Sir Alec Guinness, who is an absolute idol of mine, do everything, his rehearsals, his scenes, everything. It was fascinating. Not that I could hope to be as good as Guinness. But he is my ideal, and my idol."

Sidney Lumet says in his book that there was a problem during exterior shooting in New York. The funeral of a notorious mafia kingpin was taking place while they were filming, and bystanders among the attendees asked for a copy of the film, because they were unhappy at the possibility that their faces might show up on film.

Anton Walbrook as "Peter" donated half his fee to the International Red Cross. Raymond Massey, Laurence Olivier and Leslie Howard all agreed to work at half their normal fee, because they felt it was an important propaganda film. TCM's Rob Nixon observes that "One of the reasons for the movie's high quality is the superb ensemble cast, most of them major British stars working for drastically reduced wages because they believed in the film".

The Sim-Pal slogan is "A Sim-Pal that's fun to be with!", a derivation from "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series by Douglas Adams. There, the corporation that created robots with "Genuine People Personalities", had the slogan "Your plastic pal that's fun to be with!"
As per Arnold Schwarzenegger's trademark, he uses a variation of his line "I'll be back" that originated from The Terminator (1984): here, he says "I might be back".

Alan Rickman decided to take the part because filming was taking place in Australia. He always wanted to visit Australia.
Sharps Rifles are now so inseparably related to this film that they are commonly nicknamed "Quigley guns." Sales for such weapons increased by over 1000% following the film's release, especially in the United States and Australia, and continue through 2013. Three Sharps rifles were built for the film: one for shooting, one as a club in the fight scenes, and a back-up weapon in case one was damaged. Tom Selleck requested to keep the 3 rifles built for the film. He had two of them reconditioned to remove scratches and straighten and tighten some of the moving parts. Years later, he signed and auctioned 2 of them as part of a fundraiser for the National Rifle Association, of which he is a national board member. Selleck donated the third rifle, with its fringed leather scabbard, and belt knife to the Brownell's Family Museum.
