Beck walks into a bar in the middle of a jungle and soon engages in a conversation with Mariana who is sitting at the end of the bar nursing an orange juice/soda while reading a book. She almost finishes her drink when Beck complains to her that where he comes from "there are bartenders." She then moves over to the bar, taking the almost empty glass with her, and proceeds to serve Beck a beer. When the camera switches angle and zooms in to Beck, slowly cutting Mariana out of view, she's seen taking another sip of orange drink, but now the glass is about half full. See more...

Directed by Peter Berg, starring Christopher Walken, Ewen Bremner, Rosario Dawson, Seann William Scott, The Rock (add more)
The film's original title was "Helldorado." It was then changed to "Welcome to the Jungle," before being changed again to "The Rundown." It's still "Welcome to the Jungle" in Europe, possibly because "The Rundown" sounds like it refers to a car accident, whereas in the US it would be more readily associated with a bounty hunter.
Both of the film's previous working titles are referenced in the film. After arriving in South America, Beck passes a sign that reads "Helldorado," and in the jungle, Travis tells Beck, "Welcome to the jungle..."
California Govenor and former action star Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a special guest appearance in this movie. When Beck first arrives at the night club, Arnold walks right by him and tells him to "have fun." Arnold had just become Govenor and knew he would not be acting for awhile so this was his way of passing the torch to someone he felt would take his place as the future of action movies.
Beck tells one of the rebels that he thinks Muhammad Ali would win a fight against Mike Tyson. To intimidate his opponents, The Rock's father, Rocky Johnson, would often perform the "Ali shuffle" during his wrestling matches.
In some scenes of the movie, The Rock is actually wearing a wig. One scene in particular is when Beck brings Travis back to his Dad's house in LA. The reason is that the scene was reshot after the movie had wrapped, and The Rock had shaved his head.
Seann William Scott's line about thunderstorms was accidentally improvised; while the reference to thunder was still there, the line itself was supposed to be different.
The two bodyguards at Billy's house in the beginning of the movie are totally different guys than Billy's two bodyguards at the end of the movie. The reason for this is that those characters were recast and the scene was reshot.
