Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Rush Hour 2 (2001)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- The prop masters made approximately $1 trillion in fake money for Rush Hour 2. It looked real enough that some extras pocketed it and tried to spend it, leading the U.S. Secret Service to confiscate and destroy it.
- Director Brett Ratner said the fight choreography was often designed on the day of filming: he told Jackie Chan only where a scene should start and end and left Chan to coordinate most of the action.
- Its opening weekend set records, including the biggest August opening weekend, beating The Sixth Sense, and New Line Cinema's largest opening; the August mark stood for six years until The Bourne Ultimatum in 2007.
