Trivia: Just after the Jet "lands" in the stadium, the film shoots back over to Lex and his gang at the mansion. We see a closeup of the battered miniature town and there is a downed sign showing the name of the model railroad city, "Smallville."
Trivia: Director Martin Campbell makes a cameo as the gasoline truck driver, killed by the attempted plane bomber. (00:48:20)
Trivia: Stan Lee makes a cameo appearance in the beginning of the movie when Jean is being recruited and showing off her powers. He is the man holding a hosepipe. (00:02:50)
Trivia: Director Justin Lin was a fan of The Incredible Hulk TV series, and that inspiration led to Twinkie's Hulk van in Tokyo Drift. To make it authentic, the production worked with Marvel to secure rights for the design. The van, a Volkswagen Touran, was modified to look like Hulk's fists were smashing through the panels. This collaboration turned what could have been a parody gag into an officially approved Marvel reference.
