Trivia: In the party scene at XXX's house after he pulls the stunt with the Corvette, Joshua Todd, the ex-lead singer of Buckcherry, makes a cameo appearance - he never turns around, but you can see the suicide king of hearts tattoo on his back.

Trivia: One of the guys that Xander Cage has with him that attach the cameras to the senator's car is skateboarding legend Tony Hawk.

Trivia: As well as before-mentioned Tony Hawk, you can see action sports celebrities like Colin McKay, Mike Vallely, Mat Hoffman and Rick Thorne at the party after Xander stole the Corvette.

Trivia: When Cage goes to the party after his Corvette stunt, he starts talking to a girl with bleach blond hair and two tiger paw tattoos on her chest. This is an appearance by Eve, the famous rapper.

Trivia: In the deleted scene of the plane ride on the DVD, when they are going towards the back where Xander is sitting; if you listen, the movie that is playing is The Fast and the Furious, which Vin Diesel also starred in.

Trivia: Director Rob Cohen has two cameos, first as the horse-riding Colombian and later as the voice of the telephone caller who informs Yorgi that XXX is a spy.

Trivia: Right at the start of the movie, when the spy is being chased, one of the two men chasing him is wearing a Rammstein t-shirt, coincidentally the band playing in the building that the spy breaks into.

Trivia: When the drug lord is threatening to hack off XXX's Achilles tendon, he holds up a rusty machete. The man with the machete is, coincidentally or not, the actor that played "Machete" in the movie Spy Kids (2001).

Trivia: The film was envisioned as being an "alternative" to the James Bond series for a younger, hipper crowd. As a joking reference to this, the secret agent in the opening scene was purposely made to resemble James Bond, including having gadgets and a tuxedo on under his uniform. However, once he stumbles into a modern rock concert, he becomes confused and ends up getting quickly shot and killed. This was to (presumably) show he wasn't "extreme" enough to fight the bad guys in this story.

Trivia: During the scene where xXx was parasailing off Ahab, the stunt in question was done as seen in the film on the first take. However the stuntman wasn't 100% satisfied and wanted to do it again, on this second take that he was killed. He has since been awarded a lifetime achievement award by the stunt industry.

Revealing mistake: Xander has a XXX tattoo on the back of his neck. There are several scenes where you get a clear shot of the back of the stunt double's neck and there's no tattoo at all. Most noticeably in the scenes during the attack on the cocaine farm. (00:23:05)
